Science-based solutions
for a healthy planet
UTILISING THE POWER OF GREEN TECHNOLOGIES
Our planet needs help, and we believe the solutions lie within research. We are an R&D-focused company, developing technologies for the rapid and eco-friendly degradation and disposal of petroleum hydrocarbons and other types of persistent pollutants.
What we have developed so far can certainly be described as a game changer. It makes the remediation of oil sludge, for example, much more economical. In this way, science can help to bring about changes that benefit the environment and companies alike.
In-house research
With our small team of experienced scientists, we have implemented flexible and fast scientific research and product development processes. Depending on the project, we leverage the expertise of external specialists with unique skills and specific knowledge to support our own R&D team. This enables us to quickly deliver results across a wide range of scientific inquiries.
Productive collaborations were also integral to the development of our two-component superoxidation technology. Research was conducted in cooperation with several scientific institutions in Germany (Technical University of Berlin), Ukraine (V.N. Karazin Kharkiv National University), and Azerbaijan (A. Guliyev Institute of Chemistry of Additives, Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences).
- A Protected Patent Family
Arvox and its application processes are registered as patents at the European Patent Office (EPO) and at the Word Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). The patent family is based on the original Arva patent filed in 2018 that covers all the spheres of Arvox chemical reaction applications. As a second step product specific patents were filed for Surface Cleaning innovative solutions in 2023. Arva is continuously developing further and more specific patents to increase the IP protection. The development and optimisation of our latest scientific and practical knowledge in the sphere of soil cleaning led to the 3rd patent application in 2026.
Advanced Research: Arvox ReGen
Arvox SRT ReGen (or the “regenerative mode”) is a modern variation of the SRT process with controlled kinetics that triggers a chain oxidative reaction, systematically converting hydrocarbons into less harmful, inert forms. So called Enhanced Natural Oxidation (ENOx). A key feature of this method is that hydrocarbon degradation continues even after the primary reaction in the mixer is complete. ReGen utilises oxidation processes similar to those found in nature, but significantly more effective.
The majority of highly contaminated wastes that can be treated using Arvox ReGen cannot be remediated by any natural processes. The initial transformation of toxic fractions into biologically available derivatives is fundamentally impossible by any means other than Arvox technology.
Advanced Research: Arvox ReMove
Arvox SRT ReMove (or the “removal mode”) is one of the embodiments of the main Arvox reaction developed for the treatment of the soils freshly contaminated with oil and oily products (e.g. for OSR). The underlying chemical process produces oxidized hydrocarbon chains that undergo micellization. This facilitates the isolating and further detachment of remaining contaminants from the substrate matrix, enabling their further separation and removal in the most efficient and economically viable way to possible oil recovery. Depending on the soil mineral content, the age and the type of hydrocarbons, the separation of sand, oil and water can be applied even to more weathered substrate.
It is also possible to use Arvox SRT ReMove chemical composition for direct effective cleaning of the big shoreline objects (e.g. rocks, stones, coastal structures) with no surfactants or dispersants engaged. Conventional spraying systems required.
Advanced Research: PFAS and POPs disposal
PFAS alone and within the broader concern of Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) represents one of the most challenging classes of contaminants. Purely chemical degradation approaches rarely achieve high removal efficiencies and often generate equally problematic by-products. Current scientific knowledge declares that advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) — of which Arvox SRT method is a cutting-age example — are among the most promising approaches for the destruction of PFAS and other POPs.
Numerous bench-scale investigations proved Arvox ability to successfully destroy different types of Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) including PCBs, pesticides (more than 90% degradation achieved) and PFAS (up to 70% conversion of total target PFAS group). Now we are successfully scaling up these findings.
"I believe that our scientific discoveries will position us as key players in the realm of environmentally sound and sustainable services. We have the potential to be true innovators in this market. Although we are a small entity, we possess all the necessary resources to take to this position".
