Case Study: Industrial PFAS Wastewater Treatment

NORTHAMPTON, MA / ACCESSWIRE / January 2, 2025 / Veolia North America

For municipalities and industries, addressing regulated PFAS is crucial for compliance, mitigating risks and restoring public trust in water sources. Regulations around PFAS are changing rapidly, though, and new requirements for wastewater discharge quality resulted in operational challenges for our client.

We installed mobile treatment equipment and conducted on-site and lab testing for a full-scale solution. We used activated carbon, RO membranes and thermal technology. We designed the following treatment process:

Solids Removal → Hardness Removal → RO Concentration → Evaporation → Final PFAS treatment and discharge and reuse of treated water

The outcome was that 99%+ PFAS reduction, with an inlet wastewater treatment capacity of 220 gallons per minute.
