How Aquagga and Regenesis are treating PFAS from AFFF
Webinar: Remediation Technology sits down with Brian Pinkard of Aquagga and Maureen Dooley of Regenesis to discuss options for destroying PFAS from AFFF firefighting foam.
For Remediation Technology’s first webinar, we discuss some of the developing and commercialized technologies that can affordably address EPA’s new proposed limits for so-called “forever chemicals” in drinking water.
The moniker “forever” implies just that – with Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) able to tame fires quickly by virtue of the hard-to-break down chemistry it contains. The hazardous per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, these chemical formulations leave behind can be brought below the ambitious maximum contaminant levels EPA announced for drinking water in March, according to lab-scale studies examining technologies like hydrothermal alkaline treatment, or HALT.
