Full-spectrum Solutions for the Subsurface Management of PFAS Pollution

Chad Northington, P.E., Southeast District Technical Manager, REGENESIS

This presentation will explain the process through which colloidal activated carbon can be used to treat PFAS contamination and will examine the different application approaches, both individually and when combined. Laboratory data will demonstrate sorption efficacy in groundwater, and practical application and validation data will be shown from real-world case studies. This presentation will be of interest to practitioners, site managers and regulators interested in how to comprehensively manage PFAS contamination, from highly contaminated source areas to low concentration distal plumes or direct protection of sensitive receptors.
