Applications
Nutrient Recovery Technology
Carbonxt HydRestor™ phosphorus recovery technology was developed to specifically target growing needs to maintain regulatory compliance and maintain balance in the natural environment. The water filter technology is versatile enough to be used for municipal wastewater, stormwater, or food and beverage applications.
Coal-Fired Power Plants
Product lines feature impregnated PACs, produced from coal or domestic sustainable materials, that are designed to remove mercury in the gas and aqueous phases. The unique pore structure of our PACs permit the rapid adsorption and removal of mercury from combustion gases originating in various environments.
Cement Plant
Carbonxt's CEM-PAC line is specifically engineered for cement plants’ NESHAP and CISWI compliance efforts.
It offers its superior-oxidizing, non-corrosive activated carbons enhanced with Carbonxt’s proprietary additive in addition to slightly brominated versions. Its PACs have been vetted in a variety of plant configurations with varying gas conditions and temperatures
Industrial Boilers And Incinerators
Carbonxt's non-corrosive activated carbons do not contain additives that will cause damage to facilities, but are just as effective as its brominated products. The superior-oxidizing additive enables high adsorption of mercury, and cuts costs due to a lower necessary injection rate.
Potable Water
Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC) products are the industry standard for water treatment.
Carbonxt provides high quality PACs developed specifically for the removal of taste and odor compounds, in addition to other common drinking water contaminants. Its carbon products are all domestically produced by steam activation of select renewable resources, allowing Carbonxt to provide partners with the highest quality activated carbon products at the best price.
Voc & Contaminant Removal
Carbonxt engineers high-performance carbon pellets to remove VOCs and contaminants from a variety of gas and liquid streams. Volatile Organic Compounds exist in a variety of forms and industries. VOCs pose a risk to the environment and public health, especially the health of industry employees. Activated carbon filtration removes VOCs from air and water, purifying them for the benefit of all.
