The issue of environmental contamination by PFAS group chemicals continues to be a serious concern for many industrial sectors, most notably the chemical industry, who make and use these persistent organic compounds and will be put under increasing legislative and social pressure to find and implement solutions to this ongoing issue. Puragen have developed a global award-winning technical solution, for the removal and complete destruction of PFAS group chemicals, called “Search, Capture & Destroy”. The technology is based on the use of advanced laboratory techniques, like LC-MS, to identify specific PFAS compounds in customer’s water samples (ie “Search”), This is then followed by the use of unique surface-modified granular activated carbons (GAC) that have been developed to specifically target PFAS molecules (ie “Capture”). Spent carbon used in the this process is returned to Puragen’s UK thermal reactivation facility, where the GAC is sustainably recycled and the PFAS is removed and completely destroyed (ie “Destroy”). Independent testing has confirmed that zero PFAS is emitted into the environment by this process. This presentation will provide an update on last year’s well-attended ChemUK session, providing latest case study and supporting data.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"PFAS Emissions Management using Surface-Modified GAC (Granular Activated Carbons) - \"Search, Capture & Destroy\"","_seopress_titles_desc":"The issue of environmental contamination by PFAS group chemicals continues to be a serious concern for many industrial sectors, most notably the chemical industry, who make and use these persistent organic compounds and will be put under increasing legislative and social pressure to find and implement solutions to this ongoing issue.
