When Sorbster™ media comes in contact with arsenic, mercury and other heavy metals, it absorbs the contaminants within seconds. This reaction time allows you to have a small equipment profile or use your current equipment to achieve longer media life. Most importantly, it lets you treat the problem at the source.
- SorbsterTM media removes over 95% of targeted heavy metal contaminants
- SorbsterTM media reacts in less than 1/10 the time of other media
- The speed of SorbsterTM products has allowed use in a wide variety of novel fluid contacting technologies. This has been most important immediately for industrial applications since it is now possible to remove mercury or other heavy metals near the source.
- SorbsterTM media encapsulates the heavy metals reducing the steps taken to remove arsenic, mercury or other heavy metals. You put the media in, let it do the work, and then remove it to take it to an alternate application for recycling.
Analytical work completed by Ohio University has been completed to qualify the catalyst for mass production by utilizing MAR’s ‘quick catalyst screening’ procedure (click here for full report). Analytical research and pilot plants have proven Sorbster™ media effectiveness.
