ONGOING POSITIVE RESULTS FROM PFAS TESTWORK
● PuriflOH Limited (“PuriflOH,” “PO3” or “Company”) has progressed the applicability of its new PFAS removal technology, substantially decreasing the energy consumption and contact time requirements.
● When challenged with levels of PFAS typically found in contaminated water, an improved FRG-based system also demonstrated capability to destroy PFAS within minutes and at a power consumption of approximately 0.0001 KWhr/litre. This is 10-15 times faster and with 20-30 times less power consumed than previously reported.
● The achieved process parameters indicate a potential breakthrough in PFAS removal industrial solutions, where PFAS could be substantially removed in a simple in-line flowthrough process as opposed to current state of the art batch processes that require storage of large volumes of contaminated water.
● Since PFAS represent the worst-case scenario of industrial water contamination with stable organic compounds, PuriflOH’s proprietary solution could be applicable to any land remediation or decontamination processes required for reclaiming industrial sites and mining waste.
● PuriflOH’s PFAS removal process has a carbon footprint that is a fraction of that of activated carbon. Activated carbon provides similar removal efficiency of PFAS but requires incineration of filtration material, incurring high costs and energy consumption. On the other hand, PuriflOH’s process is designed to destroy PFAS compounds via complete oxidation without any by-products.
● Results are likely to be enhanced further with more optimization testing, which is now underway.
