A new concept: Arsenic removal in private households in Argentina - A view from the online marketing perspective of an Osnabrück student
A student from the University of Applied Sciences in Osnabrück developed an online-marketing-concept in cooperation with GEH Wasserchemie and ProH2O as his bachelor thesis. The goal is the targeted marketing of GEH® for private households in arsenic-polluted areas of Argentina.

Droughts can increase the amount of naturally occurring arsenic in private domestic wells
Both public and private wells can be affected by natural occurring arsenic. In the case of private wells in particular, there is a risk that higher arsenic levels will go undetected during periods of drought.

Current publication on predicting the service life of granular ferric hydroxide (GEH) adsorption filters for removing uranium from drinking water and mineral water
In the course of a scientific cooperation project with the Hydrogeochemistry Work Group at the University of Mainz and the
Institute of Environmental Technology at Technische Universität Berlin, a model was refined for predicting the service life of
granular ferric hydroxide (GEH) filters in the uranium removal process for water. This was then laboratory and pilot tested
using the available data.

Removing vanadium using GEH: scientific model published for predicting filter breakthroughs
When planning adsorption filters, the level of achievable adsorption capacity plays a significant role, as this determines the residence time (i.e. the replacement interval) and thus also the cost effectiveness. In conjunction with the Hydrogeochemistry Work Group at the University of Mainz, a model for the multi-component granular ferric oxide - vanadate - arsenate - phosphate - silicic acid system has now been successfully created and tested on the basis of laboratory tests and practical data.

Collaboration with Hamburg University of Technology
Even established products, like our GEH granular adsorpent, find new fields of application and process options. With this in mind, we have formed a research project with the Institute of Water Resources and Water Supply at the Technical University Hamburg-Harburg (TUHH) to develop an innovative process for removing arsenic from drinking water that can be applied in addition to the tried-and-tested GEH fixed-bed adsorber technology currently in use.
