About this technology
Overview
Kennedy Space Center scientists developed a technology called the Activated Metal Treatment System (AMTS) that safely absorbs and breaks down an environmentally hazardous chemical commonly found in older paints. Bio Blend Technologies, based in Cantonment, Florida, licensed AMTS as well as Kennedy_s Emulsified Zero Valent Iron technology, acquiring the capability to remediate the toughest cases of environmental contamination.
