Spent Carbon Reactivation and Recycling
Siemens Water Technologies operates three regional state-of-the-art Reactivation and Recycling facilities to handle your RCRA hazardous and non-hazardous liquid and vapor phase spent carbon.


With three spent carbon reactivation facilities (Darlington, PA, Parker, AZ and Red Bluff, CA), Siemens Water Technologies is a leader in spent carbon reactivation.  The Darlington and Parker facilities are both permitted to process RCRA hazardous spent carbon, making Siemens the only supplier with permitted capacity serving both the East and West Coasts.  The Red Bluff facility is the largest non-hazardous carbon reactivation facility in the western United States.

Our reactivation facilities can process RCRA hazardous and non-hazardous liquid and vapor phase spent carbons.  After inspection and acceptance, the spent carbon is heated to 1600° F to ensure proper reactivation.  The cooled reactivated carbon is identified by lot numbers, sampled and analyzed in accordance with our QA/QC program.  This process assures the highest quality reactivated carbon.

The entire state-of-the-art process is computer controlled and monitored, ensuring that the facilities meet or exceed federal and state regulatory requirements for air and water discharges.  A “Certificate of Reactivation” can be issued for each shipment of recycled carbon.  This certifies that the spent carbon has been recycled in a manner that meets or exceeds all applicable RCRA and Benzene NESHAP and Subpart CC regulations.


Features and Benefits

  • Facilities meet and comply with all RCRA,  Benzene NESHAP and Subpart CC requirements
  • Limit liabilities - Certificate of Reactivation certifies processing meets or exceeds appropriate regulations
  • Cost effective – easy procedures for carbon profiling and acceptance
  • QA/QC procedures ensure highest quality of all reactivated carbon
  • Spent carbon receiving options include by slurry trailers, rail, drums, totes, etc.
