PFAS Resources

  1. Groundwater DWTP (NJ) – DEXSORB Full-Scale 3/29/2026

    Cyclopure was invited to replace ion exchange resin to remove PFAS from groundwater at a groundwater pump station, located in New Jersey. The decision to replace IXR was due to poor PFAS removal caused by manganese fouling.

  2. Case Study: Metal-Plating Wastewater (MI) - DEXSORB Full-Scale 3/26/2026

    A metal plating service provider detected twelve PFAS at a total concentration of 36,704 ppt in the fi nal process water at its Michigan facility. PFOS was detected at 840 ppt on average, in excess of the city PFOS discharge limit of 28 ppt. The facility utilizes coagulation and sedimentation process to remove metals and requires PFAS treatment prior to discharge to the city’s sanitary sewer.

  3. Designing Resilient PFAS Treatment Strategies For Water Agencies 3/24/2026
    Water agencies across the U.S. are facing a rapidly evolving regulatory landscape for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) that poses a conundrum: Should they take a cautious or aggressive approach to treating PFAS contamination in their water system?
  4. Researcher Identifies Promising Surrogate To Advance PFAS Testing 3/24/2026

    Marking a major advancement in its multiyear effort to improve how the water sector manages per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), the Water Quality Research Foundation is funding critical research by University of British Columbia Professor Madjid Mohseni, PhD, validating surrogate parameters that can reliably predict PFAS breakthrough in water treatment technologies.

  5. Recovering Critical Minerals From Wastewater Using PFAS-Free Membranes 3/20/2026

    Access to critical raw materials such as lithium, cobalt, and rare earth metals is under pressure. The ReValue project demonstrates how we can sustainably recover these minerals from seawater and industrial wastewater using advanced, PFAS-free membrane technology.

  6. When It Comes To PFAS Removal, Not All Media Are Created Equal 3/12/2026

    As regulatory standards for PFAS become more stringent, specialized ion exchange resins provide a more efficient, high-capacity alternative to traditional carbon media, ultimately lowering long-term operational costs and improving overall system throughput and performance.

  7. Testing For Yesterday's Water In A PFAS World 3/12/2026

    Relying on assumptions when designing water treatment systems creates unnecessary financial and operational risks. Adopting predictive modeling and data-driven testing provides the precise, actionable insights required to optimize performance, manage costs, and ensure compliance.

  8. In The Age Of PFAS, Water Treatment Designers Can't Afford To Guess 3/12/2026

    Relying on assumptions when designing water treatment systems creates unnecessary financial and operational risks. Adopting predictive modeling and data-driven testing provides the precise, actionable insights required to optimize performance, manage costs, and ensure compliance.

  9. Researchers Develop Rapid PFAS Detector 3/12/2026

    When Sandia scientists Ryan Davis and Nathan Bays set out to find a better way to absorb and degrade PFAS in water sources, they kept running into the same issue: Detecting the chemicals in samples took too long.

  10. New Standard Provides Sampling Methods For PFAS In Environmental Media 3/11/2026

    ASTM International’s environmental assessment, risk management and corrective action committee (E50) has approved a new standard (E3511) that will provide a comprehensive overview of sampling methods and concerns specific to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in environmental media.
