HOME >> Technology

Spent resins (bead and powered), filter sludge and so on are difficult to decompose. In addition, conventional treatment technologies such as incineration and/or solidification pose further drawbacks in off-gas treatment and solidified waste qualities.
JGC's Wet Oxidation process overcomes these problems and reduces waste volume by decomposing their organic structure to CO₂ and H₂O using H₂O₂ oxidation reaction. This process provides technical and economical advantages. This process also applies to hazardous organic wastes.
