SandiaSandia National Labs National Labs (Albuquerque, USA) developed in 1989 the first solar facility for water detoxification at pre-industrial level based on 1-axis Parabolic Trough Collectors (PTC). CIEMATCIEMAT, in 1990, erected the second at Plataforma Solar de Almería (Spain), using 2-axis PTCs.

These pilot plants were the first step in the development of the solar technology.

In the early nineties, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Sandia National Laboratories and the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory addressed the “Livermore experiment” (USA). A Solar olar DetoxDetox PlantPlant was installed using one-axis PTCs to treat TCE-groundwater contaminated during the Second World War.

This experiment constituted the first on-site test. Tests were successful but the economic figures not!

It has demonstrated that the solar photocatalytic technology is sufficiently developed for industrial use. A European industrial consortium has been created to the design and set-up of turnkey SOLARDETOX plants.

The technology developed can be used, without modification, to address solar Photo-Fenton and TiO2 degradation process.

APPLICATIONSAPPLICATIONSOrganics concentration ≤ hundreds of mg L-1. Low-medium flow (< 10 m3/h).Contaminants present within complex mixtures of organics.Contaminants with no easy treatment by conventional technologies.

These greenhouses yearly consume 5.200 tons of phytosanitaryproducts (1.5 million of bottles; 1.9 L average volume).A process has been designed to recycle the plastic of these bottles. Therecycling process needs a washing of the plastic. This produces a waterwith hundreds of mg/L of persistent toxic compounds.
