Description
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) continue to present major technical, regulatory, and operational challenges for drinking water systems across the United States. With the U.S. EPA’s 2024 National Primary Drinking Water Regulation (NPDWR) establishing stringent new Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs) for PFOA, PFOS, and a Hazard Index requirement for PFHxS, PFNA, PFBS, and HFPO-DA, utilities are now preparing for full compliance by 2029–2031.
This webinar introduces an innovative treatment technology designed specifically to help water utilities achieve these goals reliably, sustainably, and at lower lifecycle cost than traditional PFAS removal methods. The presentation will explore how this new innovative technology integrates high-capacity micro-sorbent adsorption with an advanced ceramic separator to deliver:
- Rapid PFAS capture
- Long media life
- Stable membrane performance
- Non-detect levels of PFOA and PFOS, even under extended runtime conditions
Real pilot data (from surface water, groundwater, and mixed-source systems) will demonstrate system performance, sorbent loading characteristics, operational stability, and how ceramic microfiltration provides added benefits such as solids removal, pathogen barrier protection, and zero-waste operation. By the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:
- Understand how this new technology meets EPA’s 2024 PFAS drinking water standards, including achieving non-detect levels of PFOA and PFOS and a Hazard Index of 0.0.
- Explain the engineering principles, including micro-sorbent adsorption kinetics and the benefits of a ceramic separator for solids and microbial removal.
- Assess the operational and lifecycle advantages compared to technologies such as GAC, ion exchange, and reverse osmosis.
- Interpret real-world pilot performance data, including PFAS removal trends, sorbent loading capacity, membrane stability, and expected media change-out intervals.
