MAR Systems offers customers an economical and environmentally safe solution for removal of mercury and other contaminants from water.
MAR Systems’ core technology is its Sorbster brand of products, a media that provides clients the opportunity to cost-effectively reduce industrial discharges to the environment and clean up legacy contamination issues, thereby mitigating the conflict that has historically occurred between industry and the environment.
Through MAR Systems’ ongoing R&D efforts, the company has developed an innovative, proprietary process that removes mercury concentration in water streams to below detectable limits.
The same technology has shown reductions in a variety of other heavy metals.

Sorbster media is effective at all mercury concentrations across a wide range of water quality and temperature. The three case histories represent a variety of industrial water conditions and mercury levels. Meeting new mercury discharge limits at part per trillion targets is achievable with Sorbster media, as it readily attains very low ppt mercury levels.
Sorbster media has a capacity for mercury removal up to 75 weight percent mercury to media, and Sorbster media can be applied in standard vessels designed for water flow through. Once capacity is attained, Sorbster media passes EPA TCLP leaching tests that enables disposal of mercury laden Sorbster into non-hazardous landfills.
