PFAS Remediation, Department of Defense PFAS Pilot (Underway) - Case Study
Project Details
The objective of the pilot is to demonstrate the effective treatment of soil contaminated with PFAS by thermal desorption and off-gas destruction using Iron Creek’s Tech Zero remediation technology.
Project OperationsDetermine if it is possible to reduce the concentrations of PFAS in soil by >99%
The first objective of this field test is to validate Tech Zero’s ability to desorb and destroy PFAS contaminants in the soil. The success of this pilot is contingent upon the volume of mass that the unit can effectively treat within practical time frames and under specified temperature conditions.
Data Requirements
The technology performance will be evaluated based on contaminant concentration reductions in soil post-treatment, relative to starting concentrations. Soil samples will be collected and analyzed before and after each treatment run.
Post-treatment soil sampling results will indicate the amount of mass remaining in the treated soil (if any). These concentrations will be compared to initial concentrations to calculate the amount of mass removed.
Success Criteria
The objective will be considered met if post-treatment concentrations in soil indicate an overall reduction of PFAS in soil by greater than 99%.
