POLYTHIOCARBONATE BASED, SULFIDE BASED, CARBAMATE BASED, WHAT’S NEW?
WST precipitants are expressly formulated to precipitate metal ions from a wide variety of industrial process wastewaters and groundwaters. Such wastewaters frequently contain chelants and other complexing agents that surround the metal ions and prevent the chemical reaction that converts the ions to insoluble particles. WST precipitants chemically “break” such chelating/complexing rings surrounding metal ions thereby subjecting them to precipitating reactions.

WST precipitants, briefly described below, include sulfide, carbamate and polythiocarbonate based products and proprietary blends thereof. Additives are often blended with the basic precipitants to achieve maximum precipitating efficiency and to assist in the solids/liquid separation operations.
To determine which precipitant best fits your needs, click contact us and give us the application details so that we can respond with our recommendations. The subtle differences between formulations can often provide the answer for those hard-to-solve applications,. Let us help you.
POLYTHIOCARBONATE BASED PRECIPITANTS: the following precipitants are formulated with our patented Thio-Red as the precipitating chemistry:
Thio-Red: Basic polythiocarbonate organic compound that forms organo-metallic precipitates.
TR-5: Blend with allied compounds and coagulant for mixed metals applications.
TR-6: Blend with inorganic compounds and multiple coagulants for mixed metals applications.

What’s new??
WST-2A: a new distinct formulation of alkali salts that effectively precipitate a wide range of metals from solution over a broad pH range – from pH 3 to 14 – with extremely low hydrogen sulfide (H2S) emissions and low toxicity – 10 to 30 times less toxic that other organic precipitants (such as DTC compounds).
