A Look At VLS' New Patent-Pending Compliant Solution

This presentation introduces VLS Environmental Solutions’ patent-pending process for the final disposal of elemental mercury. Discover how this innovative technology converts elemental mercury into a stable solution, permanently removing it from the biosphere through secure underground injection. This method is the only domestic end disposal solution that fully complies with the Mercury Export Ban Act (MEBA), eliminating the significant risks and liabilities associated with long-term storage.

Attendees will learn how our process fits within existing EPA and TCEQ regulatory frameworks, supported by a 10 000-year ‘No Migration’ petition. We will showcase the capabilities of our state-of-the-art RCRA-permitted facilities in Deer Park and Corpus Christi, Texas, which have safely disposed of over 67 million gal. of mercury-contaminated waste since 2021. This session provides a clear overview of a compliant, sustainable, and definitive alternative to mercury export or storage for professionals in the mining, chemical, and military sectors. You will gain insight into a proven solution that ensures environmental safety and regulatory peace of mind.
