About Us

trona and sodium bicarbonate

The SOLVAir Group offers powerful products to provide solutions for air pollution problems. Our products, which have effectively controlled industrial air pollution for more than 20 years, control or eliminate stack gas pollutants in coal-fired power plants and industries such as glass, cement, waste incineration, precious metal refining, petroleum refining and pulp and paper. We have now added SOLVAir Select 300 (sodium bicarbonate) to our portfolio, a product which specifically targets SO2 reduction in flue gas.

The SOLVAir Group is part of Solvay Chemicals, Inc. headquartered in Houston, Texas. Solvay Chemicals is part of The Solvay Group, an international industrial Group active in Chemistry which offers a broad range of products and solutions that contribute to improving quality of life. Headquartered in Brussels, Belgium, Solvay's companies employ some 19,000 people in 50 countries. In 2008, its consolidated sales amounted to EUR 9.5 billion.

TRADE SHOW UPDATES


SOLVAir Solutions will be exhibiting at Booth #1 at CIBO's Industrial Emissions Control Technology VIII, August 2-5, 2010 in Portland, Maine. Sponsored by the Council of Industrial Boiler Owners, the conference will combine Round Table discussions, Mini-Workshops, Owners' Forum, and the Equipment Suppliers, Engineering and Environmental Service Consultants' Forum, on the realities of industrial emission compliance/technology applications, and more.

Join SOLVAir Solutions August 30-September 2, 2010, at the "MEGA" Symposium, Booth #201, in Baltimore, Maryland. This internationally renowned Symposium will address issues related to power plant air emissions through the combined efforts of four key industry players—the Electric Power Research Institute, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the U.S. Department of Energy, and the Air & Waste Management Association. The Symposium will also showcase latest developments and operational experience in the use of fossil-fired power plants, and will also focus on the reduction of SOx, NOx, CO2, particulate, mercury and other air pollutant emissions.
