100% OrganoClay - Lab Results
MCM-830 and MCM-830P Modified Clay Media water treatment results have decisively demonstrated to adsorb hydrocarbons as vapor, in aqueous solution, and as a free or dispersed phase in water. MCM-830 and MCM-830P is manufactured using a proprietary process that overcomes the need to package the product in the same manner as the 'typical' 30% organoclay, 70% carbon product.

The information gained from these tests followed by field performance data allows us to draw several conclusions regarding the performance of this material:
  • Removes free and dispersed hydrocarbons regardless of influent concentration.
  • Soluble hydrocarbons are also removed.
  • Field performance on BTEX mirrors laboratory predictions.
  • Polishing with GAC frequently takes BTEX down to non-detectable levels.

MCM-830 and MCM-830P Modified Clay Media has been tested against a wide array of industrial waste streams, with results verified by independent laboratories. View the results for each constituent below:
Top 3 waste constituents:
  • Oil and Grease
  • BTEX
  • TPH (Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons)
