Your challenges
PFAS treatment requires efficient removal and concentration strategies that reduce treatment costs while minimizing residual waste volumes and disposal requirements.
Removing PFAS from contaminated water
PFAS can be present in drinking water, wastewater, industrial effluents, groundwater, RO concentrate leachate and other contaminated water streams. Their persistence and chemical diversity make it difficult to achieve reliable treatment across different PFAS chain lengths and water matrics with a single technology.
Reducing the cost of PFAS treatment
Treating large volumes of water with energy-intensive destruction technologies can result in high operating costs. An efficient PFAS treatment strategy therefore benefits from first concentrating PFAS into a much smaller stream before applying more intensive destruction technologies.
Managing PFAS residuals
PFAS removal does not necessarily mean that the contaminant has been destroyed. Concentration technologies can create a PFAS-richt residual stream that still requires appropriate management. Operators need a treatment strategy that addresses the concentrated PFAS and minimizes long-term disposal risks and liabilities.
Preparing for increasingly stringent PFAS requirements
PFAS regulations continue to evolve and increasingly cover a broader range of PFAS compounds. Treatment systems therefore need to be flexible and capable of being integrated with complementary technoligies to address long-chain, short-chain and ultra-short chain PFAS.
