PFAS Remediation Techniques
An overview of current PFAS remediation techniques and progress in developing effective treatment approaches for soil and groundwater.
Current Treatment Approaches
PFAS are a family of man-made chemicals containing a chain of carbon atoms, fully or partially fluorinated. Due to the strength of the carbon-fluorine bond, PFAS resist degradation in the environment, earning them the nickname “forever chemicals.” Treatment of PFAS requires specialized approaches — conventional remediation technologies like chemical oxidation and bioremediation are generally not effective against PFAS due to the extreme stability of the C-F bond.
Adsorption-Based Treatment
Activated carbon and colloidal carbon products adsorb PFAS compounds from groundwater, preventing further migration. In situ carbon barriers create treatment zones through which contaminated groundwater flows, with PFAS adsorbing onto the carbon surfaces. Hepure’s Fluxsorb and CarbPure products are designed for these applications.
