Mercury treatment
Mercury is present in many industries including oil & gas and non-ferrous metal industry (zinc, etc.). BATREC contributes to the progressive global removal of mercury by treating all types of mercury waste; rendering them safe in an environmentally friendly and sound way in compliance with international legislation.
Mercury
Our missions
Regulatory context
The main objective of the Minamata Convention is to phase out the use of mercury in industrial processes and products as well as to control mercury emissions into the atmosphere.
Mercury diposal
BATREC contributes to the elimination of mercury by transforming it through a physiochemical process into mercury sulphide, which can then be safely disposed of.
Mercury absorbents
Mercury absorbents are used in chemical and petrochemical processes to purify gases. BATREC offers its recycling services to be able to return them back into the industrial cycle as raw materials.
Mercury
waste
Mercury can also be found in everyday objects such as lamps, thermometers, button batteries. To protect people and the environment, waste containing mercury must be treated in an environmentally friendly and sustainable way.
