Scientists from Newcastle University and Flinders University have now been able to measure how millions of tiny plastic particles potentially come off during cooking and in the wash as non-stick pots and pans gradually lose their coating.

From creating green, re-engineered organisms to practical and useful chemistry without waste and organic solvents, this approach can help be broadly used in the field for various reactions.

BWR can now proceed with the soil remediation as recommended by Pinchin and authorized by MECP.

New research has documented disturbingly high levels of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in widely used pesticides.

GreenFire leverages Battelle’s PFAS Annihilator to destroy firefighting foams, which contain high levels of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS.

Woodard & Curran remediation experts contributed to the development of a first-of-its-kind in-situ remediation technology to destroy PFAS compounds in groundwater.

“Our work demonstrates unique capabilities of green and sustainable materials to be additively manufactured and designed so that they have the ability to capture and remove toxic contaminants," says Professor Andreescu. 

It is imperative to identify and remediate the source zones as quickly and effectively as possible, using methods that do not generate large capital expenditures, greenhouse gas emissions, and PFAS-laden wastes.  

"Not only did we reduce PFAS concentrations by more than 99%, but we also applied it to the rinse water, reducing the airport's waste," says David Fleming, a founder of TRS. 

On Tuesday, the Department of the Interior announced nearly $10 million from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law for 17 project sites.
