Heavy Metal Removal from Wastewater with No Chemicals or SludgeIntroducing ElectraMet™ from PowerTech Water
Over 99% Selective for Heavy Metals
No CapEx and Low OpEx
ElectraMet™ harnesses the power of carbon electrode technology to remove heavy metals from wastewater and process water with no chemicals or sludge by-product. PowerTech Water manufactures and sells capacitive coagulation ElectraMet modules to remove heavy metals
from industrial wastewater and process water. The ElectraMet modules are carbon-based electrochemical filters
that use small voltages (< 2 V) in an active filtration process to target heavy metals with > 99% selectivity. The
ElectraMet modules remove metals from water streams and do not produce a sludge by-product while achieving
100% water recovery and yielding cost reductions of up to 90%.
Features & Benefits• No Chemicals = no sludge (up to 100 tons sludge
avoided per filter Module)
• Low energy (< 0.1 kWh/m3)
• Automated and trackable filter life
• Small footprint for easy retrofits
• Little setup and maintenance
• No CapEx and low OpEx (up to 90% reduction)
Applications• Battery
• Semiconductor
• Automotive
• Electroplating
• Metal Finishing
• Mining
