MERCON® Mercury vapor control & decontamination Solutions

Effectively control mercury vapour, and clean up of mercury spills, buildings, equipment, or tackle an environmental decontamination project. We offer a variety of cost effective Hg clean up solutions that will do the job safely, quickly and won’t waste your time.


MERCON® X

For building and ground clean-up.  Proprietary mercury vapour suppressant, dispersal and decontamination liquid concentrate.  Mercury vapour emission is stopped, and kept down during and after the decontamination process.  Proven effective in buildings, industrial facilities and site clean up, including  entrained Hg in oil and gas processing equipment, and production platforms.  For more information on the use of MERCON® X to control mercury and mercury vapour for your project contact us at 1-800-663-8303.

Application: May be safely sprayed or washed over concrete floors, building walls, cabinets, any mercury contaminated equipment, production platforms, and soil.  Use full strength on mercury “hot-spots” and dilute with water 2:1 for economical remediation of larger areas.  Apply this product and watch your mercury vapour meter reduce mercury gas-off to virtually ‘0’.

Available in:

  • 20 liter (5.3 gal)   Part #20-MX-20L
  • 208 liter (55 gal)   Part #20-MX-B     

MERCON® GEL

For wet or standing water environments. Designed to prevent the release of mercury vapour from waste traps, collection systems, drains and stand pipes.  Sustained release solution cleans and coats the interior of waste water systems, releasing the active ingredients when mercury is present to stop the formation of mercury vapour.  Helps to prevent release of the highly toxic, organic forms of mercury into the environment.

Application: Hg clean-up of industrial plants, refineries, mining and ore-processing sites, research facilities, dental office and chairs, or anywhere mercury may find its way into waste water collection pipes, traps, waste ponds and fields, or other drainage systems.  Where there is a regular flow of waste water, which might be contaminated with mercury – regular application of this sustained-release solution is recommended, with frequent mercury vapour readings being taken by a qualified professional.

Available in:

  • 4 liters (1.056 gal) Part #20-EVAC-4L  
  • 20 liters (5.3 gal) Part #20-EVAC-20L
  • 208 liters (55gal) Part #20-EVAC-BMSDS

MERCON® VAP

For cleaning up Hg contamination hot-spots, hard to reach areas, tools and equipment.  Fast-acting Hg vapour suppression; designed to clean up heavy concentrations of spilled mercury.  Quickly handle mercury vapour emission hot spots.  Highly-concentrated, liquid formulation cleans and coats surfaces, penetrates cracks and hard-to-get at areas where mercury may have been spilled.  The solution acts quickly to reduce mercury vapour levels.

Application: No-mixing required. Wash or spray on. Use full strength to suppress mercury vapour, decontaminate mercury spills, on surfaces and equipment.  Ideal for controlling and cleaning up mercury “hot-spots”, or difficult to reach areas.

Available in:

  • 250 ml (8 oz)  Part #20-MVAP-250
  • 475 ml  (16 oz)  Part #20-MVAP-475
