How was Sorbster™ media invented?
During early discussions on solutions for removal of mercury from coal plants, the inventors of the MAR technology recognized there might be a lower cost, greener alternative using manufactured raw materials. This led to work with the United States Environmental Protection Agency that identified the Sorbster™ media materials and their range of distinctive features and applications.
What happens if hazardous materials are not removed from water?
In many cases, depending on the metal, the materials build up in the human body resulting in serious physical damage. Several of our linked sites give you more information on the long-term consequences of the materials. Many of the metals have started to appear in blood banks and in medically sensitive areas of blood use - like neonatal care - where the medial impact appears more quickly.

What is a Pilot Program?
In many cases, the best way to show how MAR Systems' approach really works is to, simply, show you. A small, functioning system is installed and operated in an industrial plant, municipal water plant or other location. We have found this is a more effective way of showing the successful treatment, lower cost, dramatic reduction in maintenance. A pilot program, in many cases, shows how Sorbster™ media can be used in places and ways that traditional technologies (iron oxide and resins) just could not have worked. The pilot program also allows for a better understanding for the design of the permanent solution. Click here for more information.
How can I contact MAR Systems?
Click here for contact information. We have included case histories, brochures and other materials to help you be aware of MAR Systems' capabilities. However, it is best to just contact us regarding your needs and areas of interests. Our goal is to work with you to find the best solution - for you and for our environment.
