VTX Catalysts - Hydrogen Sulfide Case Studies

The VTX Process has been shown to be an excellent oxidizer of hydrogen sulfide and sulfonated organic chemicals known to cause odor in wastewater treatment. Importantly, the cost for control of these substances is low. Recent testing at a municipal wastewater plant indicated that the efficiency of destruction is so high that it allowed for cost savings in a comparative study against chlorine. Further, the destructive reaction kinetics are quite rapid with a 100 ppm solution of hydrogen sulfide being 80% reacted in the first minute and completely oxidized in less than 5 minutes.

Application of the VTX Process is very straightforward. The process simply requires metering of the VTX catalyst with the oxidizing agent into the targeted wastewater with adequate mixing. The reaction occurs quickly thereafter.

Since the VTX process occurs at or near neutral pH, there is no need for expensive equipment of special construction for metering the catalyst. Metering of the oxidizing agent component typically requires a commonly available PVC or polyethylene metering pump.

Importantly, there are no compounds within VTX that would cause concern for corrosion of piping.
