Merichem Technologies’ LO-CAT® Technology Key to ENR Award of Merit
The most cost-effective desulfurization on the market
The desulfurization trains were designed to remove up to 4.5 long tons per day (LTPD) of elemental sulfur — up to 18 LTPD in total removal. Merichem Technologies' liquid redox process removes more than 99% of the inlet H2S and virtually eliminates sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions from the landfill gas. The application makes both WIN Waste landfills among the most environmentally friendly in the nation.
In addition to ENR’s Midwest Project of the Year Award, the project also won the ENR Midwest Cites Best Project in Safety award.
Starting in 2026, WIN Waste will begin converting the captured H2S into renewable natural gas, a project that is expected to produce more than 2.7 million MMBtus of RNG annually, to start, and eventually will result in the avoidance of more than 120,000 tons of fossil-based carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions yearly.
Merichem Technologies will fabricate a fifth train of LO-CAT® technology for one of the sites.
“These are model landfills thanks to Merichem’s technology,” said Mark Santella, Vice President of Engineering for WIN Waste Innovations. “There was no off-the-shelf model for what we were trying to achieve here. We are incredibly grateful to have partnered to bring the best of the best technology available to make our Ohio landfills environmentally protective and great for the region. This award is an important milestone in our company’s pursuit to bring sustainable essential services to our customers and communities.”
