Successful Installation of TALON® Sulfide Elimination System

Streamline Innovations in partnership with VWT Industrial performed a successful 14-day pilot project that is now transitioning to a permanent TALON Sulfide Elimination System® (TSES™) system installation for H2S treatment and wastewater odor control at a large pulp and paper mill in New York.

H2S levels at the plant have been excessive for years, and the mill needed a solution that was quick to deploy and would generate immediate results to get odors under control and meet fence line limits.

Within days of TSES optimization, H2S levels began to drop to acceptable levels.

Because of process upsets, changes to flows and weather, the situation was very challenging. However, both Streamline and VWT Industrial worked diligently to assess the issues and deploy quick solutions for supporting the customer.

Since the TSES system became operational, the mill has not received any fines from the air board.

TSES is one of Streamline’s differentiated technologies developed for Wastewater H2S and Odor Control.

Successful Installation of TALON® Sulfide Elimination System

Streamline Innovations in partnership with HP Thompson, a Veolia Water Technologies representative, successfully piloted and installed a permanent TALON Sulfide Elimination System (TSES™) system for H2S and other malodorous compound treatment in the belt press room at a wastewater treatment plant in central Ohio.

Historically, odors have been a persistent issue in the press building and have made working conditions difficult for plant personnel. Another product had been used but the results were not satisfactory to plant management.

The TSES chemistry was injected inline 2-3 minutes upstream from the belt press and successfully performed the REDOX process prior to discharge. The pressed sludge only had a mild compost aroma and plant personnel repeatedly remarked that it was comfortable to be in the press room for long durations without headaches or smelling offensive once they left the building.

Additionally, operating expenses were reduced by approximately 10%.

TSES is one of Streamline’s differentiated technologies developed for Wastewater H2S and Odor Control.

We are excited about this partnership and look forward to more biosolids related opportunities in the future.

White Paper Summary

Wastewater Odor Control in the Spotlight

Odor control at municipal and industrial wastewater treatment facilities has become a primary concern, as population growth brings more people into proximity of wastewater operations.

Residential communities are less tolerant of nuisance odors, and failure to cost-effectively control noxious odors can result in significant fines, damage corporate reputations and stress goodwill with communities.

Fortunately, wastewater professionals have a variety of odor control technologies available. In this paper we cover the most common odor control methods and discuss the best practices in wastewater management.

The Problem of H2S Treating and Wastewater Odor Control

At the root of odors generated from wastewater operations is hydrogen sulfide (H2S), which is a naturally occurring compound generated by bacterial breakdown or decomposition of organic material, both plant and animal, in anaerobic (absence of oxygen) conditions.

Hydrogen sulfide is a toxic, poisonous gas that is destructive to infrastructure and can be deadly to humans. H2S treatment is a critical concern for wastewater odor control.

H2S Treatment Methods

Methods for mitigating H2S-related odors have evolved over time, and today wastewater professionals have a variety of alternatives at their disposal.

Odor control H2S treating methods today include:

  • Aqueous phase H2S treatments (traditional)
  • Vapor phase H2S treatments (traditional)
  • Next Generation Redox for H2S treating (modern)

Traditional H2S treating methods have their individual benefits and drawbacks, which we cover in our white paper on odor control best practices.   

The Future of Wastewater Treatment – Next Generation Redox

Recent technological breakthroughs in chemistry and process optimization have ushered in a new era of H2S treating and wastewater odor control.

The TALON® Sulfide Elimination System (TSES™) from Streamline Innovations is a next generation Redox process for H2S treatment in both the water and vapor stages, eliminating foul odors without the downsides of traditional H2S treating methods.

TALON® Sulfide Elimination System technology page.

The TSES is a true game changer, by being the only solution capable of H2S treatment in both water and vapor phases. Using the same catalyst in both water and atmospheric situations, it works equally well (no loss in efficacy). This provides tremendous flexibility in applications at municipal and industrial wastewater operations.

Regenerative Solution. The TSES is a regenerative process that restores the chemistry so it can be reused, significantly reducing the cost of H2S treating.

“While our customers come to Streamline for the economics and operational performance, they really appreciate having quantifiable environmental metrics.”

David Sisk, CEO

Unlike like some hydrogen sulfide treatment processes that create pollution or toxic wastes, Streamline’s Valkyrie destroys H2S, and creates elemental sulfur that can be used for soil amendment in agriculture. 

The Bridge to a Green Future

Streamline’s Valkyrie solution employs our proprietary Talon®, a non-toxic, biodegradable Redox (“Reduction-Oxidation”) chemistry process that removes H2S from gas streams by converting it (“reduction”) to elemental sulfur and then regenerating the chemistry by introducing air (“oxidization”), so the chemistry can repeat the treating process, over and over again.  Talon is safe to transport and safe to handle, improving worker safety and quality of life. 

Streamline technology gives industries a bridge to a net-zero, sustainable future. We look forward on reporting our progress in our next scorecard.

Valkryie Skid Unit

We are working nonstop to achieve our vision of A Green Future with technology that helps industry transition to a cleaner, more sustainable and profitable future.

Valkyrie technology is eliminating some of the most difficult pollution challenges facing industry, permanently destroying H2S and producing value-added byproducts that can be used in Organic Production.

Simple Elemental Sulfur™

Streamline’s sulfur produced by the Valkyrie is listed as Simple Elemental Sulfur™ with the Organic Material Review Institute (“OMRI”) for use as fertilizer for Organic Production.  OMRI certification approval standards are compliant with the USDA National Organic Program (“NOP”) regulations for organic cultivation processes.  Simple Elemental Sulfur™ is a powdered, amorphous form of sulfur that can be beneficial as a soil amendment, increasing the pH of soil and improving the uptake of nitrogen.

  • VALKYRIE® Unit is a key element in upgrading the landfill gas to Renewable Natural Gas for sale to local pipeline utility
  • Installation represents a technological breakthrough for H2S treating in very low pressure environments

SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS (January 27, 2022) – Streamline Innovations, Inc. today announced the successful installation, startup, and operation of their first ultra-low-pressure VALKYRIE® Unit for treating hydrogen sulfide (H2S) at a landfill in Northern Illinois.  The customer is one of the largest full-service providers of solid waste collection and non-hazardous solid waste landfill services in the United States and Canada.  This installation achieves Streamline’s goal of expanding into the renewable fuels and gas market.

The VALKYRIE Unit in this application is able to treat up to 11 MMscfd of landfill gas having H2S concentration levels up to 3,000 parts per million (ppm) and operating at less than 4 psig.  This is Streamline’s first full installation at a landfill and deployment of its High-Efficiency Contacting System™ for low pressure operations.  In addition, the VALKYRIE Unit was configured for extreme winter conditions.

The VALKYRIE Unit installation is part of the customer’s plan to upgrade the landfill gas to be sold as Renewable Natural Gas to the local natural gas pipeline utility.  The VALKYRIE Unit reduces the H2S content in the gas stream to the pipeline’s specification of less than 4 ppm.

Valkyrie installation at landfill gas operation removes H2S in extreme low pressure environments.
Landfill gas operation converts H2S into Simple Elemental Sulfur.
The High-Efficiency Contacting System™ facilitates operation in very low-pressure environments.

The Unit provides multiple benefits, including the elimination of routine flaring and the destruction of the H2S by converting it into Simple Elemental Sulfur™, which is listed with the Organic Material Review Institute (OMRI) for use in Organic Production.  

Streamline’s technology to reliably treat high H2S concentrations in gas at low pressures represents a technological breakthrough with far reaching implications for gas from anaerobic digesters, landfills, renewable fuels refineries, and industrial exhaust.  This technology can handle large changes in gas flows and H2S concentrations, removing much of the uncertainty that otherwise leads to excess flaring.
