SORBION uses functionalized materials to remove low ppm level impurities, improving product quality. These impurities are found in process and waste streams, entering the system through raw materials or water. Sometimes these metals are valuable, but they can also interfere with processes. SORBION employs functional adsorbing molecules to effectively remove these impurities.

There are various scavenging materials available, each selective in their affinity for metals such as Pd(II), Sn, Pb, Pt, Cu, Rh, Ru, Ag, and Hg.

Industries such as API pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, natural extracts, specialty chemicals, mining, refineries, and electronics use these materials for metal purification, recovery, and recycling.

In chemical synthesis research, development, and manufacturing, SORBION solutions enhance and maintain product quality while optimizing pharmaceutical production. The technology also recovers precious metals from liquid streams in the industry, with noticeable losses at low ppm levels.
