Haley & Aldrich’s innovative PFAS destruction tech offers a solution to DOD’s remediation needs

Nearly 100% of PFAS

destroyed by EradiFluor

+15 mg/L concentration of fluoride

measured at the end of the process, demonstrating that PFAS molecules were fully transformed into fluoride, a harmless by-product

Summary

  • With public and regulatory pressure mounting, the Department of Defense (DOD) urgently needed innovative technologies to remediate PFAS. Existing technologies concentrated, but did not destroy, PFAS-containing waste.  
  • The DOD financially supported a Haley & Aldrich team as we worked to develop a new PFAS destruction technology, EradiFluor. After promising tests, we conducted the first field test at a U.S. naval installation on the Eastern Seaboard.  
  • Coordinating with Navy remediation staff, we treated a concentrated waste containing PFAS (up to 17,366,000 ng/L) from in situ foam fractionation treatment of groundwater impacted by firefighting foam.
  • Both field and laboratory analytical data provided multiple lines of evidence demonstrating that EradiFluor can destroy PFAS safely at ambient conditions, at low cost, and with no harmful by-products to levels below the EPA’s stringent requirements.
