APTsorb®: The Ultimate Solution for Heavy Metal Removal

When water quality compliance isn’t optional—and performance can't be compromised—APTsorb delivers unmatched results. Engineered by American Peat Technology, this cutting-edge sorption media transforms natural reed-sedge peat into a powerhouse of pollution control. From industrial runoff to stormwater treatment, nothing removes heavy metals more effectively, more sustainably, or more affordably.

Why APTsorb® Leaves Everything Else Behind:

Precision-Targeted Metal Removal
Harnesses the natural ion-exchange power of peat to selectively capture toxic heavy metals like lead, copper, zinc, nickel, and cadmium—while ignoring benign elements like calcium. That’s surgical precision in contaminant removal.

Built to Perform—Anywhere, Anytime
APTsorb doesn’t foul, clog, or quit. It thrives under high solids, competing cations, and tough field conditions. With easy backwashing, it stays effective far longer than traditional media.

Cost-Smart, System-Ready
A fraction of the cost of synthetic resins. Whether you're installing a new system or retrofitting an old one, APTsorb fits: tanks, vaults, socks, booms—you name it.

Sustainable by Design
Responsibly harvested. Naturally powerful. Environmentally sound. APTsorb brings you into compliance without complex infrastructure or environmental compromise.
