What RECIRK Recirkulation does

RECIRK Recirkulation is a Swedish privately-held environmental engineering company headquartered in Halmstad that provides process equipment and turnkey system solutions for industrial air emissions treatment, water purification, and remediation of contaminated soil and groundwater. The firm serves industrial clients across manufacturing, metal industries, dry cleaning, chemical, fuel storage (rock storage), and cooling/Freon handling sectors, with named reference projects in Sweden and Hungary. Its core product portfolio consists of five proprietary technology families — Bubble Phase Reactors (gas-liquid stripping), Mist Elimination Filters (coalescence filtration), Fixed Adsorption Beds (activated carbon, zeolite, polymer, peat adsorption), Catalysts (low-temperature oxidation/reduction), and VOC Concentrators (rotary concentration for autothermal incineration) — which are combined into integrated system solutions for gasoline-contaminated bedwater treatment, HCFC/Freon liquification, and large-scale soil and groundwater remediation. Business model is project-based, one-time equipment sales and engineered system delivery direct to enterprise industrial clients; pricing is not publicly disclosed and is presumed site-specific. Geographic footprint is regional (Sweden and at least Hungary), with no disclosed intermediaries, distributors, or recurring revenue contracts. The company is small (1–10 employees), privately held, with no disclosed funding, ownership, partnerships, or certifications.

Revenue model

1. Environmental Treatment Equipment and Systems Sales: RECIRK sells components (bubble phase reactors, mist elimination filters, fixed adsorption beds, catalysts, VOC concentrators) and complete engineered system solutions for air/water emissions treatment and soil/groundwater remediation. Revenue is generated through equipment supply, installation, and project-based remediation system delivery to industrial clients.

Core offering

RECIRK designs, manufactures, and supplies proprietary environmental treatment components — bubble phase reactors, mist elimination filters, fixed adsorption beds, catalysts, and VOC concentrators — and integrates them into complete engineered system solutions for industrial air emissions treatment, contaminated groundwater and gasoline bedwater purification, HCFC/Freon recovery, and soil/groundwater remediation. Solutions are delivered as both permanent installations and mobile treatment plants for industrial clients across manufacturing, chemical, fuel storage, and dry-cleaning sectors.

Product overview

RECIRK Recirkulation provides environmental solutions focused on treating emissions to air and water, and remediation of contaminated soil and groundwater. Their product portfolio consists of five core product categories: Bubble Phase Reactors for gas-liquid stripping, Mist Elimination Filters using coalescence technology, Fixed Adsorption Beds for pollutant removal from air/water, Catalysts for oxidation/reduction reactions, and VOC Concentrators for emission concentration. These core products are combined into system solutions including Gasoline Bedwater Treatment, HCFC/Freon Liquification Systems, and Soil and Groundwater Remediation Systems. The company serves industrial clients including manufacturing, metal industries, dry-cleaners, chemical industry, and cooling furniture recycling operations.

Functional benefit

Products and services

• Bubble Phase Reactors (Bubbelkammarstrippers) Efficient gas-liquid contact devices for stripping volatile compounds from contaminated fluids such as groundwater by blowing air or gas through the fluid. Particularly effective for chlorinated hydrocarbons and condensate from evaporators; used by industrial clients for groundwater purification.
• Mist Elimination Filters (Dimmavskiljningsfilter) Coalescence filters using packed beds of fibreglass cylinders that agglomerate microscopic mist droplets into larger drops for drainage. Suitable for oil mist, water mist, and bitumen mist in industrial process airstreams.
• Fixed Adsorption Beds (Fasta Bäddar) for air and water Systems for adsorbing dissolved pollutants from water or process airstreams onto solid materials (activated carbon, synthetic zeolites, polymer materials, peat). Includes single-use beds and regenerable configurations with on-site steam/hot-air regeneration or off-site reactivation.
• Catalysts (Katalysatorer) Catalytic systems on solid structures (metals or precious metals) for oxidation (VOC to CO2 and water) and reduction (ozone to oxygen, NOx to N2) of pollutants in process air. Operate at low temperatures, enabling uncomplicated equipment and simple operating conditions for VOC incineration from finishing and chemical processes.
• VOC Concentrators (VOC – koncentratorer) Systems using rotary concentrator technology to concentrate VOC in process airstreams before incineration, reducing energy consumption and enabling autothermal operation. Low pressure drop, suitable for rooftop installation; operates at ~300°C for catalytic or ~850°C for thermal incineration. Applied in paint booths, plastics, wood industries, and printing processes.
• Gasoline Bedwater Treatment Systems Systems for purification of gasoline-contaminated bed water from rock storage facilities using floating-bed design where water seals the rock room from air. Treats in-leaking groundwater at up to 8 m3/h (permanent) or 60 m3/h (mobile) via stripping, concentration, and catalytic incineration.
• HCFC/Freon Liquification Systems Multi-step systems for separating and condensing low-boiling fluorinated hydrocarbons from process air into liquid phase. Includes cooling, drying, low-temperature adsorption in fixed beds with steam regeneration, and deep cooling for hydrocarbon liquefaction.
• Soil and Groundwater Remediation Systems Remediation systems for hydrocarbon (VOC) contaminated sites at metal industries, dry-cleaners, and chemical plants. Uses vacuum extraction of soil and pump-and-treat methods for groundwater purification, including stripping of chlorinated hydrocarbons via 10 groundwater extraction wells on large projects.
