This $415,661.18 Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation under the Water Desalination Research and Development program (CFDA 15.506) aims to develop a new approach to selectively remove and degrade per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from water. The project involves synthesizing, characterizing, and testing a metal-organic framework (MOF) material to selectively remove PFAS, and then using the MOF's electrical conductivity to facilitate...
This federal Cooperative Agreement award, valued at $483,623.40 and funded by the U.S. Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation under the Water Desalination Research and Development Program (CFDA 15.506), aims to optimize the removal of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from water and wastewater through enhanced coagulation and flocculation processes. The project, led by the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT), will investigate the use of hydrophobic ion-pairing as a...
This Cooperative Agreement award, with a total funding amount of $602,500.00, was provided by the U.S. Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation under the SECURE Water Act - Research Agreements program (CFDA 15.560). The project aims to treat two aquifers contaminated with per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), making them unsuitable for use under current standards. Key areas of investigation include understanding the impact of inorganic ions on PFAS removal, exploring the benefits...
The U.S. Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation awarded a $557,406.76 Cooperative Agreement to William Marsh Rice University under the SECURE Water Act - Research Agreements program (CFDA 15.560). The goal of this 18-month project, with an estimated completion date of September 2025, is to further evaluate the effectiveness of boron nitride-based photocatalytic materials for the destruction of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in brackish groundwater and reverse osmosis...
Hazen and Sawyer, PC was awarded a $202,837.56 cooperative agreement from the Bureau of Reclamation under the SECURE Water Act - Research Agreements program (CFDA 15.560) to pilot an electrochemical oxidation system for treating per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) contaminated concentrate from a brackish water desalination facility. The pilot project will operate an electrochemical oxidation skid to treat PFAS impaired membrane concentrate from the Brackish Groundwater National...
The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation awarded a $391,660.68 Cooperative Agreement to the Regents of the University of California, Riverside (UC Riverside) under the Water Desalination Research and Development program (CFDA 15.506). The goal of this 2-year project is to test a novel vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) light-driven photochemical process for treating nitrate and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from inland desalination brine. The project will develop an innovative VUV system to overcome...
This Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Department of the Interior's Bureau of Reclamation, under the SECURE Water Act - Research Agreements program (CFDA 15.560), provides $311,880.59 to the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) to demonstrate the use of hydrophobic ion-pairing to enhance the removal of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from contaminated groundwater through a pilot-scale granular activated carbon (GAC) treatment system. The project aims to optimize the...
The Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation awarded a $1,001,044.18 Cooperative Agreement to Carollo Engineers Inc. on August 24, 2023 under the SECURE Water Act - Research Agreements program (CFDA 15.560). The project will test an in-situ resin regeneration process using bicarbonate for potable water reuse applications. This approach aims to remove dissolved organic matter and inorganic anions such as nitrate, nitrite, phosphate, and others from the water without producing the large...
The Rancho California Water District will develop a strategic plan for advanced wellhead treatment facilities to mitigate emerging per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) contamination in the groundwater of southwestern Riverside County, California. Funded by a $800,088 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of the Interior's Bureau of Reclamation under the WaterSMART (Sustain and Manage America's Resources for Tomorrow) program (CFDA 15.507), this 3-year effort will protect a critical...
This Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041), provides $500,000 to the Regents of the University of California at Riverside (UC Riverside) to develop an efficient short-wavelength UV-driven water photolysis (SHARP) process for destroying per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in the concentrated brine reject from membrane treatment of wastewater. The project aims to investigate how short-wavelength UV light and brine solution...
