Water Purification

Removal of Petroleum and Heavy Metals from Water

BATTA Technologies' main focus lies in petroleum/ heavy metals cleanup and filtration systems. BATTA is partnered with Axon, a Swedish manufacturer of robust water filters. Using a thermally treated peat that is harvested in the arctic regions of Sweden, our filters are highly effective at removing more than 99% of oil, petroleum, PFAS, solvent and metallic contamination. This peat can also be used on its own to treat oil spills on water and to biodegrade land contamination.

AFX Absorber and Axon Filters are quickly being adopted by large organizations all over Europe, China, and now the US. These new technologies are proven to save time and money in multiple ways while removing harmful contamination. The team at BATTA Technologies is proud to be the sole distributor of these products in many regions of the globe. Contact us today regarding your unique needs and concerns.

AFX Absorber

AFX Absorber is a granular peat product that absorbs petroleum and adsorbs heavy metals. This peat is an effective spill cleanup absorber for small oil spills. Its granular properties also allow it to be used in our patented filter systems for the removal of petroleum, heavy metals and PFAS from contaminated water.

AFX Absorber is an environmentally friendly cleanup solution that is also very cost-effective! Here's why our granular peat differs from other products:

  • Absorbs BOTH Petroleum and Heavy Metals
  • Will absorb 0.5 liters of oil for every 1.0 liter of AFX Absorber (twice as efficient as activated carbon)
  • Does not leach or discharge absorbed contaminants... EVER!
  • Is completely natural and biodegradable
  • Easy to contain and dispose of saturated material
  • Can be incinerated in suitable furnace
  • Is brown when applied, black when saturated
  • Is non-hazardous and non-toxic
  • More effective than anything on the market today

This peat is great for companies looking for a versatile spill cleanup agent. It can be used in socks or in booms, and will float for 24 hours. It absorbs more contaminant than competing products, and it is 100% natural and biodegradable. It is granular, so wind won't carry it away easily, and it is easily collected after use.
