About this award
Humphreys Engineer Center Support Activity awarded a $749,999 definitive contract to University of Maryland Baltimore County for novel functionalization of conventional sorbents for enhanced selectivity and improved concentration of ultrashort- and short-chain PFAS under SERDP project ER24-4224 on March 28, 2024. The award carries cost-no-fee pricing and an ultimate completion date of March 27, 2028.
The originating solicitation, posted November 3, 2022, sought research to improve commercially available adsorbents through specific surface chemistry modifications that enhance capacity and selectivity for 18 ultrashort- and short-chain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances. Place of performance is Baltimore, MD.
Villanova University serves as subcontractor, leading development and characterization of metal oxide-biochar composites for adsorption, desorption, and performance evaluation in PFAS-impacted waters collected from Department of Defense facilities. Villanova's scope includes generating adsorption isotherms, confirming adsorption mechanisms, optimizing regeneration protocols, measuring uptake kinetics and mass transport parameters, investigating impacts of water quality parameters on PFAS adsorption, and conducting conventional and rapid small-scale column tests to demonstrate enhanced performance and scalability.
