Synopsis:
- A review of ex situ technologies which outlines both commercially available and in development for PFAS remediation in drinking water, groundwater, wastewater, landfill leachate, and solid waste streams
- FLUORO-SORB® Adsorbent is highlighted as a proprietary surface modified clay with versatility in grain size to obtain suitable permeability in various treatment vessels
- Peer-reviewed literature from drinking water and groundwater treatment is summarized, siting empty bed contact times (EBCT) as low as 2 minutes
- Landfill leachate from a Massachusetts landfill treated with FLUORO-SORB® Adsorbent was shown to have reduced concentrations of the 6 regulated PFAS from 1000 ng/L to 3 ng/L with ECBTs as low as 7 minutes
Brief: A recent technology review regarding PFAS ex-situ treatment options highlights the versatility and strong performance of FLUORO-SORB® Adsorbent in treating PFAS contaminated groundwater, drinking water, and landfill leachate.
