CETCO, a leading provider of environmental solutions, and AST Environmental, Inc., an industry leader in the application of geotechnical services and injection technologies, are pleased to announce their new partnership providing the proprietary FLUORO-SORB® Adsorbent technology for in-situ injection applications domestically & internationally. This revolutionary technology is designed to immobilize per- & polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) found in groundwater, allowing for a more cost-effective solution than traditional pump and treat systems.

 

FLUORO-SORB® Adsorbent is a solid product that when applied through direct injection, the material is comprised of a slurry suspension. AST’s decades of experience successfully injecting slurries into overburden, transition zones, & fractured bedrock settings make this partnership a natural fit.

 

Get ready to add some serious adsorbent technology knowledge to your toolkit! Join CETCO and AST for an upcoming webinar that covers everything you need to know about FLUORO-SORB® Adsorbent. From in-field distribution testing to potential application techniques. Plus, with multiple dates to choose from, there are no excuses for missing out!

• April 5, 12:00 AEST (Brisbane)
• April 11, 12:00 EDT (East Coast North America)
• April 12, 14:00 CEST (Copenhagen)
• April 13, 12:00 PDT (West Coast North America)

 

Using this technology can significantly reduce initial cost outlays and total project costs while also reducing ongoing operations and maintenance (O&M) expenses associated with extensive pump and treat systems.

 

The trend towards in situ management of PFAS in groundwater versus groundwater extraction or  in situ soil mixing construction benefits clients by reducing initial cost-outlays, total project costs, and ongoing operations and maintenance (O&M) of expensive and expansive pump and treat systems. The use of this technology also provides flexibility for future changes or additions that may be necessary due to changing regulations or site conditions.

 

“This collaboration with AST Environmental will provide our customers with access to the most advanced injection technologies available on the market today," said Barry Shadrix, Global Wastewater and Remediation Director at CETCO. "We are confident that this partnership will ensure reliable performance while offering superior support."

 

CETCO's FLUORO-SORB technology is an ideal solution for remediation projects requiring strict adherence to regulatory standards regarding PFAS levels in groundwater sources.
