PFAS equipment
PFAS treatment with proven technologies that reduce a wide range of PFAS, including both long‑ and short‑chain compounds, delivering stable performance over time.
Long PFAS chains
Long PFAS chains—compounds with eight or more carbon atoms such as PFOS and PFOA—are less water‑soluble and highly persistent.
Ultrashort PFAS chains
Ultrashort PFAS chains are highly water‑soluble compounds with two to three carbon atoms, making them extremely mobile and difficult to treat.
Short PFAS chains
Short PFAS chains—typically containing four to five carbon atoms, such as PFBA and PFBS—are more water‑soluble and mobile than long‑chain compounds.
