Soil Remediation

As a supplier of catalyst and process technology, Applied Catalysts can help customers source catalysts and chemicals in many areas.

Catalysts for Soil Vapor Extraction

Soil vapor extraction (SVE) is an in situ soil remediation technology in which a vacuum is applied to the soil to induce the controlled flow of air and remove volatile and some semivolatile contaminants from the soil.  An air compressor at the surface pumps air underground through the wells. As air bubbles through the groundwater, it carries contaminant vapors upward into the soil above the water table.

 

The mixture of air and vapors is then pulled out of the ground for treatment using SVE.  Once above ground, a Catalytic Oxidizer, employing specially developed oxidation catalyst, catalytically combusts the VOC’s to Carbon dioxide and water.  In the case where chlorinated hydrocarbons are present, care must be taken to use the proper catalyst and to design a proper air pollution control system to handle the corrosive gases that are emitted from the control device, such as HCl, which can be removed via a caustic scrubber, post catalyst abatement.

Product Types for Emission Control

Activated Carbon Monolith

In chemical process applications, ACMC® catalysts can be used for continuous hydrogenation reactions in many areas where traditional GACC (granular activated carbon catalysts) are currently used.

Monolithic Catalysts

Our monolithic solutions include activated carbon, ceramic, and metallic catalysts that have great applications for engine emissions control and industrial air pollution.

Particulate Systems

Our particulate systems include extrudates, precious metal spheres and saddles for regenerative air pollution control.  Enjoy benefits like 95% heat recovery.

RTO/RCO Media

We offer unique designs, such as our ceramic honeycomb, that provides excellent benefits including high resistance to thermal shock and solid thermal mass for effective heat exchange.
