In practice, AVS works best with classical, well-known reagents whose kinetics benefit from intensification: iron salts (FeCl?, FeSO?) for co-precipitation of heavy metals and arsenic, lime or NaOH for pH control and hydroxide precipitation, sulfide reagents for soft metals, and oxidants/reductants such as hypochlorite, peroxide, or sulfite for redox conversion. The device does not require exotic chemicals; its advantage is that it makes standard chemistry react much faster and more completely. As for capacity, a single industrial AVS reactor typically handles from a few cubic meters per hour up to tens of m³/h, depending on model and reaction time. Large flows are achieved by parallel installation of multiple units, which is the normal scaling strategy.
