This work is to 1) identify palladium (Pd) catalyst formulations with sufficient activity to reduce different target oxyanions in brine solutions, 2) determine if catalyst activity can be maintained for extended periods of operation, and 3) assess the economic and environmental life cycle costs of hybrid IX/catalysis treatment systems.
