This article published in Water Quality Products discusses the challenges of remediating PFAS in groundwater, and approaches to overcome it.
Article highlights:
- PFAS represent perhaps the most significant challenge ever to confront the groundwater remediation industry
- In-situ colloidal activated carbon (CAC) method treats PFAS while generating zero hazardous waste
- Numerous sites in the field have already shown two years of effective PFAS removal to achieve the cleanup goals
Identifying the sources of PFAS-impacted groundwater and remediating these sources is critical to maintaining safe drinking water. PFAS’s non-degrading, bioaccumulating nature has led to establishing some of the lowest cleanup levels of any groundwater contaminants — less than 10 parts per trillion in some cases — equivalent to one-half-drop in an Olympic pool. Removing the risk of a potential receptor’s PFAS exposure is the goal of all PFAS remediation.
