City of Detroit Utilizes Midas OCM to Remove H2S Odors at Collapsed Sewer
The Detroit Water and Sewer Department experienced a sewer collapse, resulting in the need to bypass, creating up to 120 ppm of H2S gas and odors at the drop shaft one half mile away. Westates Carbon Rolloff containers were installed onsite eliminating the sewer odors four days after receipt of the signed contract.  More

Delaware Community Solves VOC Contamination in Drinking Water Supply with Activated Carbon
In the Fall of 2005, water analysis for the Town of Millsboro, DE indicated that they were exceeding the Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) for the volatile organic compound, Trichloroethylene (TCE). TCE has been identified by the EPA as a carcinogen.  More

Midas OCM Eliminates Odors Associated with West Coast Sewer Collection System
In 2004, a major west coast city began construction of two new interceptor sewers. The 12 foot diameter intercept lines relieve hydraulic overloading, but also created a number of turbulent areas where nuisance odors adversely affected the local residential community. These odors were primarily H2S at concentration levels of up to 150 ppm, as well as volatile organic contaminants (VOCs).  More

Midas OCM Field Testing Confirms Increased Capacity for H2S Adsorption and Odor Removal
The unique and patented manufacturing process for Midas OCM converts H2S directly to elemental sulfur rather than sulfuric acid, which is the typical reaction of H2S on carbon. Since the sulfur molecule is smaller than the sulfuric molecule, the carbon is able to adsorb a greater number of sulfur molecules. By comparison, Midas OCM will last between 3 to 8 times linger than conventional medias used for this purpose. To verify the performance, USFilter conducted a 5-month test under actual field conditions.  More
