Is becoming more and more attention
PFAS is a kind of thousands of chemicals known collectively: perfluorinated alkyl and multiple fluorine alkyl substances.This kind of material in the United States over the last few decades has been applied to military, industrial and commercial.
According to Bluefield Research report, the American PFAS pollution: policy development, operational risk and technology to predict "from 2020 to 2030, to 2030, to remove all the water fluoride and the market demand of fluorinated alkyl compounds (PFAS) more likely to reach $3.1 billion.And at the same time filtering technology and products, such as ion exchange resin and reverse osmosis (RO) membrane and granular activated carbon sales will be substantial increase in different period of time.
PFAS pollution is a kind of "the report said the emerging crisis", along with the development of the contaminated site and health test, PFAS pollution is more and more attention.
- From the water to remove PFAS using plasma technology
- In the study of academic POU technology to remove PFAS performance ranking
- Orange county water district of PFAS pollution problem
Several states, including Michigan and New Jersey, in the "slow" before the federal government to remedy contaminated sites, has implemented regulatory restrictions on the PFAS concentration.According to the report, based on the functional test and actual demand, existing 29 states of PFAS pollution status some related policy adjustments.Among them, the orange county water district investment of $1.4 million, known as "America's biggest PFAS pilot scheme".
PFAS water treatment technology options
Bluefield forecast, due to the wide use range, more cost effective and easy to install, granular activated carbon will become the main processing technology of choice in the short term.And after 2023, including ion exchange resin and reverse osmosis, other techniques are expected to be in the medium to longer term.Currently, OCWD is testing 10 different kinds of carbon and four different kinds of resin.
But, because "any important PFAS water treatment residue solid waste treatment are likely to need many years issued", for this kind of wastewater treatment solution way "it is not clear.
The report also cited in Maine and vermont dairy PFAS pollution example, called it a "harbinger of change", the pollution caused by organic sludge will be temporarily banning the use of land.
