Automated heavy metal removal and rinse control for plating, anodizing and finishing lines.
Plating and finishing give critical components their durability, corrosion resistance and performance. The same chemical baths generate complex wastewater streams rich in chromium, nickel and copper, and managing them safely and cost-effectively is one of the industry’s toughest challenges.
The RT3 removes heavy metals to under 1 ppm with zero hazardous sludge. The RW3 keeps rinse tanks in spec and adds water only when needed, cutting water use, sewer costs and wastewater volume.

Removes Cu, Cr, Ni, Ag and Au to under 1 ppm, safely to drain, with zero hazardous sludge.

Copper, chromium, nickel and silver, to under 1 ppm with the RT3.
No. The RT3 uses patented metallic-exchange media: no chemicals are dosed and no hazardous sludge is produced.
Yes. The RW3 adds water to a rinse tank only when its chemistry calls for it.
Yes. They run as one automated loop, from rinse tank to discharge-ready water.
Start at 8 L/min (2.1 gal/min) with a 4-column crate, step up to SuperPac-8 at 16 L/min (4.2 gal/min), and add crates as needed.
Treatment here is about compliance. Copper, chromium and nickel have little recovery value, so there is no payout on those. Silver is refined and paid out.
