About this award

Humphreys Engineer Center Support Activity awarded a $989,399 definitive contract to the University of Illinois for electrocatalytic reduction of PFAS in groundwater and aqueous concentrates on September 29, 2023, under the Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program (SERDP ER22-3158), with no set-aside.

The originating pre-solicitation, posted in November 2020, sought environmental research proposals across restoration, munitions response, resource conservation, and weapons systems technologies, with multiple awards anticipated totaling approximately $10 million. This project focuses on developing efficient electrocatalysts for defluorination of poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances in groundwater and aqueous concentrates. Place of performance is Pittsburgh, PA 15220.

The contract operates on a cost, no-fee basis with an ultimate completion date of September 28, 2027. Purdue University serves as a subcontractor, contributing particle synthesis and optimization, targeted PFAS quantitation across 60+ compounds, nontarget SWATH analysis, total oxidizable precursor assay, fluoride analysis support, and manuscript development. Purdue's co-PI Dr. Linda Lee brings specialized analytical expertise in PFAS behavior and remediation, employing quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry and LC/MS/MS systems capable of detecting PFAS loss to 9 nanograms per liter, with analytical work following Department of Defense QSM 5.3 compliance standards.
