CAT 100 is an innovative environmental remediation product that combines the power of BOS 100®’s contaminant-trapping technology with biotechnology. It’s specifically designed to treat contaminated soil and groundwater, focusing on sites with high concentrations of chlorinated volatile organic compounds (CVOCs). This makes it ideal for projects requiring complex contaminant remediation.
CAT 100’s technology works through a precise, multi-step process:
1. Electron transfer: Contaminants adsorb to activated carbon surfaces, forming an electrical connection throughout the elemental iron and carbon structure.
2. Electron pump—CAT 100 contains complex carbohydrates and peptides that ferment slowly, creating a steady supply of electrons. This electron pump fuels the conductive network, driving ongoing degradation.
3. Catalytic iron support—The metallic iron acts as a catalyst, allowing for more contaminant treatment than traditional iron-based methods.
