Description

Breaking the molecules into nontoxic components requires breaking a multitude of carbon-fluorine bonds, one of the strongest bonds in nature. As a result, energy use is an inhibitor and the predominant cost driver for commercializing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances destruction technologies. This project will test a field-scale pilot to evaluate the technical effectiveness and economic feasibility of combining foam fractionation, a per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances concentration approach, with the patented per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances destruction technology to destruct per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances in industrial wastewater at a commercial chemical producer. The success criterion is to continuously treat the industrial wastewater at the required flow rate and decrease the per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances compounds to concentrations that meet regulatory requirements in the plant discharge at an affordable price.
