Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of synthetic chemicals widely used for their resistance to heat, water and oil. Studies have shown that these persistent chemicals have spread to the air, water, soil, and foods at concerning levels, posing significant environmental and health concerns. Global efforts are now underway with federal, state, and local authorities implementing regulations to curb further spread of these hazardous compounds.
Successfully managing PFAS contamination demands meticulous planning, specialised expertise, and strict adherence to environmental protocols to ensure the safety of workers and the surrounding community.
At Liberty Industrial, our advanced ECI offering enables site assessment and contaminant mapping, and our skilled environmental engineers ensure we combine data with specialised treatment methods such as stabilisation, adsorption and oxidation, to achieve best available and sustainable remediation outcomes. This allows us to effectively manage PFAS-contaminated soil, concrete and water.
In addition, our custom-built, high-flow water treatment plants are available to treat contaminated surface water and groundwater to levels below laboratory reporting limits. By creating site-specific remediation plans to address each client’s specific needs and concerns, we ensure the effective removal of PFAS contaminants while promoting long-term site recovery and compliance with stringent environmental standards.
