Electrochemical + NEAT

NEAT makes electrochemical oxidation a more competitive technology - allowing for an up to 93% reduction in energy demand.

Electrochemical oxidation (EOx) is a burgeoning AOP that benefits from its ease of use, and its wide range of accessible substrates. However, it remains a niche technology mainly due to the high operation cost based on energy demand. In recent demonstrations, NEAT has proven effective at intensifying oxidation reactions in electrochemical oxidation (EOx) systems for pharmaceutical waste removal - marking up to 93% reduction in energy demand.


NEAT dramatically improves degradation rates

The charts below illustrate the power of NEAT catalysts on electrochemical systems. With an extremely small amount of NEAT added to the treatment train of an EOx system, degradation rates of various compounds increased by 30-40X.

FIGURE #1

Just 600 parts per billion of NEAT added to an EOx system rapidly degrades Acetaminophen while reducing the need for other additives and reducing energy demand.

FIGURE #2

Increasing the dosage of NEAT increases the degradation rate, as shown with this Orange Dye II Removal test. This provides evidence that NEAT can improve throughput capacity for an existing EOx design.
