In situ colloidal activated carbon (CAC), commercially delivered as products like PlumeStop®, provides an effective and field-proven solution for PFAS remediation in groundwater by immobilizing contaminants directly in the subsurface.…
A research team, with funding from the Department of Defense (DoD)1, developed a planning-level instrument for rapid estimation of the longevity of colloidal activated carbon (CAC) barriers.2 It provides a low-resolution,…
Research Article highlights: Significantly lower carbon footprint: The in situ CAC barrier emitted 98% fewer greenhouse gases over 15 years compared to the ex situ pump-and-treat system (56 vs. 3922 metric tons CO₂-eq).…
Published Research of Wurtsmith Air Force Base Shows Potential for Over 60% Savings Too often the US Department of Defense (DoD) contractors default to the installation of pump and treat…
PFAS Monitored Attenuation The article “PFAS Monitored Retention: A Framework for Managing PFAS-Contaminated Groundwater Sites” by Charles Newell et al. outlines PFAS Monitored Retention (PMR) as an evolution of traditional…
PFAS Guide highlights: Expert insights from leading environmental professionals on how to investigate, manage, and remediate PFAS risks in soil and groundwater. Explore in situ and off-site soil treatment strategies in the…
A research team, with funding from the Department of Defense (DoD)1, developed a planning-level instrument for rapid estimation of the longevity of colloidal activated carbon (CAC) barriers.2 It provides a low-resolution,…
The paper explores the four contemporary remediation technologies for PFAS in groundwater considered by the ITRC to be ‘field demonstrated’. Three of these technologies are variants of pump-and-treat (P&T). The…
This article published in Wiley's Remediation Journal reviews a case study of in-situ treatment of TCE and PFAS in groundwater at an industrial site within a silty sand aquifer. Using a combination…
