This article published in The Military Engineer discusses the in-situ treatment of PFAS at Camp Grayling, the largest National Guard training installation in the United States.
Article highlights:
- Pilot test of colloidal activated carbon at Camp Grayling indicates effectiveness for long-lasting PFAS treatment solution
- Results show elimination of PFAS below standard method detection limit of 10-ng/L
- DoD currently directing research into colloidal activated carbon treatment approach as a solution to the nation’s PFAS problems
The Michigan Department of Military and Veteran Affairs (DMVA) proactively tested an innovative in-situ reactive barrier application of colloidal activated carbon. This first of its kind implementation at a Department of Defense facility has shown it could be an effective, long-lasting treatment solution for PFAS contamination in groundwater. Additionally, subject matter experts are working through the Environmental Security Technology Certification Program to evaluate Monitored Natural Attenuation as a remedy to address PFAS. Field-based performance evaluations, such as those conducted at Camp Grayling, complement these research efforts.
