Powerful Chemistry. Sustainable Results.
Environmental remediation projects are among the most technically and financially challenging problems businesses or industries can face. Removal and clean-up of contaminated sites often involve a complex mixture of chemical compounds, all with different health, safety, and compliance considerations. HiPOx Environmental Remediation systems offer powerful chemistry and process flexibility to quickly and cost-effectively achieve compliance and/or site closure.
The HiPOx® process is a patented advanced oxidation process (AOP) technology that can quickly and completely oxidize a wide range compounds such as 1,4 Dioxane, chlorinated solvents, fuels, oxygenates, pesticides, and other toxic chemicals.
Using well-known ozone (O3) + hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) chemistry that produces the hydroxyl radical (OH•), HiPOx technology can rapidly oxidize many organic compounds. In fact, reaction kinetics using the hydroxyl radical can be up to 1-billion times faster than using other oxidants such as ozone alone. Utilizing a multi-step injection process, HiPOx systems create a carefully controlled and extremely efficient oxidative chain reaction. The result is a treatment process that is cost-competitive with conventional technologies, such as carbon adsorption, and does not have the inherent limitations of UV-based systems.
HiPOx systems also offer extremely flexible treatment solutions for many water conditions. Systems can be operated in three different oxidation modes: AOP, O3 only, or alternating between modes within a single reactor. This flexibility enables HiPOx to achieve very high levels of contaminant destruction under even the most difficult site conditions. Moreover, the HiPOx process eliminates the production of spent reagents, sludge, or other waste products. This virtually eliminates the costly issues associated with handling and disposing of process waste.
