ME₂C Environmental’s primary focus is reducing mercury emissions in coal-fired power plants through its patented & proprietary, cost-effective sorbent enhancement additive technology, SEA®. Our patented process ensures the quality of coal ash, a by product of mercury emissions, which can be recycled for use in important industrial applications such as cement and building materials.

The environmental benefits include significantly reducing mercury emissions from coal-fired power plants, which is crucial in meeting regulatory standards and protecting public health and the environment. Our patented process optimizes plant efficiencies, requires less material, and ensures that overall end products are used efficiently. The resulting coal ash is recycled instead of disposed of in ash piles, reducing the environmental impact.

ME₂C’s solution is unique because it not only improves the efficiency of mercury capture but also reduces the amount of activated carbon required. Our proprietary blend of activated carbon (AC), bromine, and other ingredients ensures optimal efficiency and less material usage, resulting in lower operational costs, less carbon waste, and reduced corrosion. Additionally, ME₂C is not just a product distributor – we are a full-service environmental tech firm that tunes our sorbents to meet specific plant configurations for optimal results.

Controlling mercury emissions is essential because mercury is a toxic pollutant with severe health impacts, including neurological damage. The EPA’s federal MATS mandate, introduced in 2016, requires power plants to capture a certain percentage of contaminants emitted to the air. ME₂C ensures that power plants capture over 85% of mercury emissions and recycle the by product, coal ash, for industrial use, minimizing contamination in soil and ash ponds.
