Heavy metal treatment for anodizing, electroplating, metal finishing and etch lines. Captures copper, chromium, nickel, silver and gold to under 1 ppm, with zero hazardous sludge, ready for drain, evaporation or reuse.

Displaced wastewater collects in an effluent tank, the metals stay in the columns, and treated water goes to drain, evaporation or reuse. No chemicals, no sludge, no hauling.



Displaced rinse water collects in a common effluent tank. A low-level sensor starts the RT3 only when there is enough to treat, and a high-level sensor raises an overflow alarm before anything spills.
Patented metallic-exchange media in the SuperPac columns captures copper, chromium, nickel, silver and gold. No chemicals are dosed at any point.
Treated water leaves by gravity through 3/4″ piping, ready for drain, evaporation or reuse on the line. A pressure transducer and wet-tray leak sensors watch the columns the whole way.
Pair the RT3 with an RW3 and the line runs as one automated loop, from rinse tank to discharge-ready water. Rinse chemistry stays at setpoint, water goes in only when it is needed, and the effluent stays consistent.
RW3 reads pH, conductivity and temperature in every rinse tank.
City or DI water goes to any tank that reads out of spec, then shuts off.
The displaced rinse water is pumped to a common effluent tank.
Metals are removed to under 1 ppm, with zero sludge, for drain, evaporation or reuse.
Every RT3 reports to Metatrax. It tracks flow and column pressure, flags leaks and overflows, and emails your team with troubleshooting steps.

Conductivity, pH and temperature across up to 8 rinse tanks, with pump-less venturi sampling.
