About this award

Battelle Memorial Institute, a premier nonprofit research and development organization headquartered in Columbus, Ohio, was awarded a $610,127 firm fixed-price definitive contract by Naval Facilities Engineering Command on March 18, 2024, to develop and apply supercritical water oxidation technology to destroy per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). The contract, funded incrementally with an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2026, leverages Battelle's extensive expertise in environmental remediation and advanced scientific research. This award addresses the Department of Defense's critical need to remediate PFAS contamination at military installations and facilities, a significant environmental priority given PFAS's prevalence at defense sites and its designation as an emerging contaminant of concern.

The contract engages Testamerica Laboratories, Inc., a division of Eurofins Scientific and a specialized analytical testing firm based in Knoxville, Tennessee, as a key subcontractor to provide analytical services supporting the supercritical water oxidation project. Testamerica brings specialized expertise in environmental sample analysis, including PFAS testing and complex analytical protocols essential for validating destruction efficiency and monitoring contaminant reduction. This collaborative approach combines Battelle's research and technology development capabilities with Testamerica's analytical laboratory expertise, positioning the effort to advance innovative PFAS treatment solutions that could be applicable across the Department of Defense's contaminated sites and facilities.
