Organoclays

Organoclay applications include groundwater pump and treat, sediment dewatering, as an amendment in an in-situ solidification/stabilization application, in a permeable reactive barrier, and as part of a sediment cap. Compared to activated carbon, organoclay has a high adsorption capacity of oil and grease and because of this organoclay is often used as a pretreatment media before activated carbon to not blind the carbon and extend its life. Organoclay also has a higher capacity for adsorbing less soluble, higher molecular weight organics. Various organoclays are available depending on the application, some of which are provided below.



Organoclay, partition coefficients, contaminants, MGP, manufactured gas plant, creosote, coal tar

Organoclay Properties  

  • Dry, granular material
  • Bulk Density: 50 lb/ft3
  • Specific Gravity: 1.75
  • Contaminant Sorption Capacity:
  • Oil: 0.5 - 1.0 g/g organoclay (field)
  • LNAPL, DNAPL: 2 - 4 g/g organoclay (lab)


  • Organoclay is a highly effective adsorption media for contaminants with low water solubility
  • Partition coefficient is proportional to octanol-water partition coefficient

Organoclay F

Organoclay SS-199

Organoclay MRM

Organoclay

A proprietary granular filtration media that reliably adsorbs oils and similar organics from water. It is a mixture of 30% active ORGANOCLAY and 70% anthracite filter media, which allows for maximum utilization of the large sorption capacity of ORGANOCLAY without excessive pressure build-up in the column. Applications include: Groundwater Pump-and-Treat and Sediment Dewatering Treatment.

Organoclay MRM

Organoclay SS-199

Organoclay MRM

 In addition to adsorbing non-aqueous phase liquids (NAPL) and dissolved low-solubility organics, specially-formulated, sulfur-impregnated ORGANOCLAY MRM sequesters mercury (Hg0, Hg+1 and Hg+2) and arsenic (As+5) from water. Applications include:

  • Groundwater pump-and-treat
  • Sediment dewatering treatment
  • Solidification/stabilization

Organoclay SS-199

Organoclay SS-199

Organoclay SS-199

Our finest-grain media, ORGANOCLAY SS-199 features medium adsorption of oils, greases, and other NAPL and helps stabilize organics for increased solidification of treated soils and sediment. ORGANOCLAY SS-199 is for use in soil or sediment solidification/stabilization or as an additive to Portland Cement.Applications:

  • In Situ Solidification

Organoclay PM-199

Organoclay PM-199

Organoclay SS-199

Our second finest grain media, PM-199 features high adsorption capacity of oils, greases, and other NAPL and can be used on its own or in series with activated carbon. When used as a filtration media prior to an activated carbon vessel, PM-199 extends the life and of activated carbon by removing larger molecular organics that can cause fouling. Applications include:

  • Filtration Media
  • Sediment Capping
  • ISS

Organoclay PM-200

Organoclay PM-199

Organoclay PM-200

Our second coarsest grain media, ORGANOCLAY PM-200's particle size aids in settling through the water column when placing a bulk active in-situ sediment cap. ORGANOCLAY PM-200 is also your best match for intermixing with coarse inert soil for use of a Permeable Reactive Barrier (PRB) or for  Bulk Sediment Capping.

Organoclay BB

Organoclay PM-199

Organoclay PM-200

Organoclay BB, sediment remediation

 Our coarsest grain media, ORGANOCLAY BB is a larger and denser version of ORGANOCLAY PM-200 to aid in settling through the water column. When used for sediment capping, ORGANOCLAY BB can be placed hydraulically or mechanically.
