Remediation
Remediation of industrial process streams by SAMMS™ can significantly reduced waste disposal cost, waste volume and environmental impact by selectively removing and sequestering hazardous waste components in a small volume of stable easily handled material. The contaminant laden SAMMS™ can then be regenerated and recycled, or integrated into a stable waste form for disposal. SAMMS™ can be integrated into a variety of engineered forms to optimize process efficiency to address the needs of specific process streams.
