“Liquid Incineration” for a Cleaner Environment The VTX Process Innovative Remediation Technologies, Inc
2
VTX is an organic catalyst that reacts with various oxidizing agents to produce hydroxyl radicals. No sludge is produced as a result of the process in normal use. Safe and easy to apply. Application of catalyst requires no materials of special construction.VTX

Odor & Corrosion Control Treatment of Sulfide
5
The VTX Process Treatment of Sulfide VTX rapidly converts sulfide (H 2 S, HS -, S = ) to elemental sulfur. Immediate reduction of odor and corrosion due to H 2 S. VTX is suited for control of sulfide in: Landfills Food Production Animal Waste Municipal and Industrial Wastewater Treatment Rapid Oxidation of Sulfide

Reaction Time and Dosage Comparison: H 2 O 2 Alone vs. VTX Process Treatment of Hydrogen Sulfide Hydrogen Peroxide Alone H 2 S + H 2 O 2 S 0 + 2H 2 O Reaction time:20-30 minutes Effective dosage (mass H 2 O 2 /mass H 2 S) : 1.5 to 4.0 : 1.0 VTX Process H 2 S + VTX /H 2 O 2 S 0 + 2H 2 O + salts + CO 2 + [VTX]* Reaction time: <3 minutes Effective Dosage (mass VTX/mass H 2 S) : 1.5 to 2.5: 1.0 * Note: [VTX] = remaining un-reacted VTX
