Adsorbent Approach to Contaminant Removal - Functionalized
Activated Alumina Media is Highly Effective
Removal of soluble heavy metals from water by chemisorption: Bonding at
chemically enriched sites throughout enhanced alumina-based media
Contaminants Removed

High adsorbent capacity: up to 75% by weight

Tin
Barium
Hexavalent
Chromium
Ability to reach ultra-low levels (ppb and ppt)
Antimony
Cobalt

Effective across broad pH range: pH 3 to 10

Low fouling potential

Passes TCLP for non-hazardous disposal option

Pellet Size:
Nominal 1/8”
Water flow and contact time are the only
engineering parameters
Application Methodology
Column Bench Testing
Commercial Systems
• Available for evaluating
contact time,
pretreatment needs and
commercial
optimization
• Inexpensive and easy to
deploy in all size pilot and
commercial units
• Industry standard vessels
Temporary Treatment
• Ease of use allows for
temporary treatment
options
• Remote Location
application
One Media – Multiple Solutions
• Lower Cap-ex and Opex than all other
effective treatment
options (>=90%)
Have a system in place and a
client in environmental
compliance in 6-8 weeks
• Easy to deploy,
change out and nonhazardous disposal
(significantly reduced
“hidden cost” )
