PFAS Remediation

Modular and mobile treatment trains for groundwater, process water, and AFFF runoff—engineered for speed, compliance, and results.

Overview

247321 designs and deploys PFAS remediation systems for refineries, chemical plants, airports, landfills, municipal utilities, and remediation contractors. Our flexible approach combines foam fractionation, GAC, ion exchange (IX), and reverse osmosis (RO)—configured to your influent chemistry, regulatory targets, and schedule. Options include mobile rentals for 911 events and modular systems for permanent or semi‑permanent installations.

Waters & Scenarios

  • Groundwater & Drinking Water: Low‑ppt to sub‑ppt targets; GAC/IX polish; RO optional for potable specs.
  • Surface & Stormwater: Variable TSS/organics; pretreatment with filtration and oil/grease removal.
  • Industrial Process Water: Co‑contaminants (surfactants, solvents, oils); staged pretreatment + fractionation + polish.
  • AFFF/Foam Runoff: High‑strength matrices; foam fractionation primary + GAC/IX polishing.

Treatment Trains by Use Case

High‑Strength AFFF Runoff

  1. Pretreatment: strainers/coalescers; optional DAF
  2. Foam Fractionation for PFAS concentration
  3. Polish: GAC → IX resin (lead/lag)
  4. Effluent QA/QC & discharge or reuse

Groundwater / Potable

  1. Pretreatment: cartridge filtration (1–10 μm)
  2. Primary: GAC or IX (selective resins)
  3. Optional: RO/NF for sub‑ppt targets
  4. Post‑treatment conditioning & monitoring

Complex Industrial Matrices

  1. Pretreatment: pH adjust, coagulation/floc, organics removal
  2. Primary: Foam fractionation or IX (resin‑first)
  3. Polish: GAC and/or RO as needed
  4. Automated controls with alarms/telemetry

Brine & Concentrate Management

  1. RO/NF concentrate capture
  2. Fractionation of brine or off‑site management
  3. Stabilization/solidification where applicable
  4. Manifesting & compliant disposal

Monitoring, QA/QC & Reporting

  • Analytes: PFOS, PFOA, PFHxS, PFNA, GenX (HFPO‑DA), and site‑specific PFAS lists.
  • Sampling: Influent/effluent/isotherm testing; breakthrough curves; lead/lag bed sampling ports.
  • Telemetry: Flow, pressure, level, pH, and ORP; remote alarms and data logging.
  • Validation: Third‑party lab results with chains of custody; monthly performance summaries.

Waste Handling & Compliance

  • Skimmate & Concentrates: Sealed transfer to approved containers; transport by licensed carriers.
  • Spent Media: GAC reactivation or resin regeneration when feasible; otherwise compliant disposal.
  • Regulatory: Manifests, chain‑of‑custody, and documentation aligned with federal and state requirements.
  • Permitting: Support for NPDES/POTW discharge coordination and permit sampling plans.

Mobile vs. Permanent Deployment

  • Mobile Rentals: Rapid deployment for 911 events; CIP‑tested before each assignment.
  • Modular Systems: Skid‑mounted, expandable trains for sustained operation; plug‑and‑play with quick connects.
  • Pilots: Short‑term trials to confirm media selection, loading rates, and OPEX before scale‑up.

FAQ

Which media should I choose—GAC or IX?
We model influent chemistry and cost to recommend GAC, IX, or a hybrid. For high‑strength AFFF, fractionation first is typical.
How fast can you mobilize?
Emergency rentals can deploy in as little as 24–72 hours depending on logistics and site readiness.
Can you meet sub‑ppt targets?
Yes—using selective IX, lead/lag polishing, and RO where required, verified by third‑party lab results.
