In this webinar we were pleased to have a special presentation by Avram Frankel, P.E., Managing Principal at Integral Consulting Inc. His presentation discussed PFAS resources and considerations for groundwater professionals, plus what we've accomplished and what we can do better in the remediation industry. He was joined by Ryan Moore, PFAS Program Manager at REGENESIS, who discussed in situ treatment of PFAS using colloidal activated carbon to eliminate PFAS risk at a low cost.
Highlights of this webinar:
-
The evolution of remediation hydraulics, direct push technologies, next generation in situ reagents, and integrated site remediation and drinking water treatment strategies.
-
Key market forces that continue to shape our industry such as insurance, government funding and litigation.
-
What has been achieved in the remediation industry, what could be done better, and how we will meet new challenges.
-
An update on the use of PlumeStop to eliminate risk on PFAS sites globally.
This webinar will expand on these topics, touch on some broader environment, social and governance topics, and highlight some important considerations in the assessment and mitigation of emerging contaminants such as per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances, a topic Mr. Frankel explored in recent article published in the journal Groundwater (https://doi.org/10.1111/gwat.13101).
