 our customers, offer superior performance and the lowest possible feed rates when compared to other solutions on the market. Our processes also preserve fly ash which can be sold and recycled for beneficial use.

In order to evaluate each customer’s needs, we finely tune the combustion chemistry using our technologies and specially formulated products. In order to achieve optimal results, we bring mercury emission analytics to the field for our demonstrations as opposed to collecting samples for laboratory analysis while our team analyzes the entire plant’s performance once compliance testing has begun. As a result, we are able to offer customers:

 ·Assessment of existing systems and suggested improvements; ·Assessment and guidance of mercury capture and emissions; ·Optimal design of the injection strategy and appropriate equipment layout and installation; ·Sorbent optimization using flow modeling for a customized, low-cost plan for each unit; ·Emission testing for mercury and other trace metals with our mobile laboratory; and ·Ongoing research toward improved technology for mercury capture and rapid-response scientific support for emission or combustion issues as operations and regulations change.

Water Treatment

In April 2024, we announced the introduction of our new division to address the potable (drinking) water market with new sorbent technologies under development. These new technologies involve less use of activated carbon and are a much more environmentally friendly approach to water treatment.

AC is a form of carbon that has been processed to have a large surface area and a high degree of porosity. This gives it the ability to adsorb a wide range of substances, making it highly effective at removing particles, toxins and impurities. GAC and similar agglomerated activated carbons (or shaped activated carbons) are a form of activated carbon that is specifically produced in a granular, coarse form, as opposed to powdered or pelletized forms. This granularity allows for better flow through filtration systems, which makes it ideal for use in applications that require a continuous flow of air, water or liquids. GAC is commonly used in water filtration systems, including municipal water treatment plants. It is particularly effective at removing chlorine, organic compounds, pesticides, heavy metals, and other contaminants. Reactivated GAC is spent GAC that has been restored for reuse, making it more sustainable and cost-effective.

Utilizing renewal raw materials allows us to develop and provide shaped activated carbon that can compete with other commercially available GAC options, and provide a superior activated carbon technology to remove contaminants (including PFAS) from potable water. While pending PFAS
