Percolate

Solvents in the groundwater can vary in nature. A Kemic Water Technology activated carbon filter system or vacuum extraction system can be used to eliminate solvents from the groundwater. 

A vacuum extraction system is an environmentally friendly method for treating contaminated water by means of a range of processes. Read more about Vacuum Extraction Systems.

An activated carbon filter system is a recognised method for removing various unwanted elements or contaminants from the water. An activated carbon filter system requires a permit from the authorities. Read more about  Activated Carbon Filter Systems.

Vinyl Chloride can be eliminated using a Kemic Water Technology vacuum extraction system. This is an environmentally friendly process which removes solvents as well as petrol and oil components. The treatment method consists of several processes, whereby the contaminated particles are gasified in a vacuum, and, after buffing, the resulting water quality fully complies with the threshold values for discharge of water.

Firefighting foams are eliminated using an activated carbon filter system.

Kemic Water Technology specialises in removing such foams from water. This is usually done using remediation systems since the firefighting foam percolates into the subsoil in a limited area or is collected in an oil separator filter. This type of remediation system is set up at the client, either as a stand-alone system or in a container. Kemic Water Technology will handle operations of the systems to ensure optimal operation of the filters.

Pesticides and BAM are eliminated using an activated carbon filter system.

Problems with pesticides and BAM are usually solved by mixing water from several boreholes to comply with threshold values for discharge of water to consumers. However, in som cases, the contamination is so extensive that it cannot be managed without additional water treatment.

An activated carbon filter system is a recognised technology for removing various unwanted elements or contaminants from the water. An activated carbon filter system requires a permit from the authorities. Read more about Activated Carbon Filter Systems. 

Kemic Water Technology is working on a development project which, in the future, will be able to remove pesticides using natural processes. Read more about The Trojan Horse. 

An activated carbon filter system is used to eliminate Chloridazon and Desphenyl-chloridazon.

In 2017, attention was firmly focused on Chloridazon and Desphenyl-chloridazon in boreholes at Danish waterworks. Chloridaxon can be eliminated from water using an activated carbon filter system. The first system for eliminating Chloridazon is already in use.

Tributyltin is removed in a filtration plant with a special filtering medium and a specially manufactured oil separator.

Tributyltin is found in concentrated areas where wood was previously pressure-impregnated. Read more about Tributyltin. 

Lead is eliminated from drinking water or percolate in a filtration plant using a special filtering medium and, in some cases, iron granulate.

It is rare to find lead in drinking water in Denmark but there are many remediation boreholes with water containing lead. Kemic Water Technology supplies a filtration plant for removing lead from percolate. The filters consist of pressure filter system with special filtering material, which absorbs the lead in the water. The result is a concentrated waste product, which must be transported to a landfill site.

Zinc is eliminated from drinking water or percolate in a filtration plant using a special filtering medium.

Zinc is found i percolate in large Danish cities and in areas with a concentration of heavy industry. Zinc can be effectively eliminated using a filtration plant and a special filtering medium. The result is a concentrated waste product, which must be transported to a landfill site.

Chrome is eliminated from drinking water or percolate in a filtration plant using a special filtering medium.

Chrome is found in percolate in large Danish cities and in areas with a concentration of heavy industry and landfill sites for industrial wast. Chrome can be effectively eliminated using a filtration plant with special filtering materials. The result is a concentrated waste product, which must be transported to a landfill site.

Mercury is eliminated from drinking water and percolate using a filtration plant combined with special filtering materials.

Mercury is found in percolate in large Danish cities and in areas with a concentration of heavy industry. Mercury can be effectively eliminated using an activated carbon filter system with special filtering materials. The result is a concentrated waste product, which must be transported to a landfill site.
