Chemical Corporation

Advanced chemical recycling services for hazardous and non-hazardous materials

 

KmX Chemical, a subsidiary of KmX Corporation, is a chemical recycler located in Virginia’s eastern shore using conventional and advanced processing techniques to provide a broad range of cost effective solutions to our clients. Our capabilities include distillation, evaporation and dehydration utilizing both molecular sieves and state-of-the-art membrane systems. 

 

KmX’s unique business proposition lies in its ability to seamlessly integrate various separation technologies to provide the most effective recycling solutions. Through its cadre of professional employees, advisers, vendor relationships as well as its well equipped recycling plant and laboratories, KmX has the capability to provide fast and efficient recycling methodologies and solutions to all its client’s chemical recycling needs.

There is no such thing as “one solution fits all” when it comes to chemical recycling. Solutions are therefore necessarily hybrid in nature where a combination of enabling technologies is used. Each technology provides a part of the separation(s) required within a proprietary customized sequence and overall methodology.

KmX Chemical Corporation operates under the “reclaimed materials” exemptions to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) governing hazardous waste management.  “Reclaimed materials” are not solid wastes as defined in 40CFR 261.2(c)(3).  KmX may also receive hazardous secondary material that is generated by others and transferred to KmX for the purpose of reclamation under 40 CFR 261.4(a)(24). KmX maintains the records required of reclaimers of materials under these sections of RCRA.

Thus KmX can provide both tolling services for those desiring the return of their chemical products or the purchase of chemical streams for resale to secondary or tertiary markets.  For either program KmX follows a Pre-Acceptance Procedure which may accept or reject the generator’s material depending on its constituents.

KmX will assist generators’ due diligence efforts for legitimate reclamation claims.

In addition to our own unique separation formulas and methodologies, pervaporation membranes provide an important proprietary ingredient to KmX’s unassailable lead in chemical recycling.

·         Enough tank space for dedicated tankage and reduced potential for cross-contamination

·         Piping dedicated by product type to reduce the potential for cross-contamination

 

 

 Products for Sale

KmX converts solvent and wastewater streams into valuable resalable or reusable products by means of integrating of a couple of separation systems and technologies. These combined processes can efficiently separate complex spent mixtures into their component parts (including azeotropic mixtures) and recover each target component to purities of 99.5% or better thereby enabling its reuse.

A wide range of recycled products are offered for purchase including (but not limited to):

  • Ethanol – Industrial (in whatever formulation requested)
  • Ethanol – Fuel Grade
  • TBA in 88 - 99% purity
  • IPA above 99% purity
  • Ethylene Glycol in 50 – 99% purity
  • Propylene Glycol in 50 – 99% purity
  • Methanol
  • Acetone
