Our mission is to eliminate waste acids from the stainless steel industry.
Was wir machen
We developed REGMAX®, a process to recover all waste acid contents, to enable a closed loop of materials being used during stainless steel pickling. Using our REGMAX® technology your company will benefit from:
- Highest Resource Efficiency
- > 90% OPEX Reduction
- Independency from Acid Supply
- Highest Flexibility for Pickling Operation
- Positive CSR Impact
Learn more about our process and our first two REGMAX plants being installed in Europe.
Wer wir sind
SUSTEC is focusing on green technologies to reduce the environmental impact of existing technologies. We are experts for acid regeneration plants and the pickling process and discovered a process for the recovery of mixed acids from pickling.
We lower company's operation costs, increase their profitability and help them to "get green".
Why we do it
Our drive at SUSTEC is to develop solutions lowering both your environmental impact and your operational costs. We identified stainless steel pickling as a process step with huge improvement potential, since until today, it has caused environmental problems and wasted valuable resources. Our vision was to develop a technology that would eliminate all the waste streams generated during stainless steel pickling. Today, we can offer the REGMAX® technology, a solution to turn your pickling waste into fresh resources.
