Clean Earth Joins in Department of Defense Study for PFAS Remediation
22 Janvier 2024 - 2:00PM
Clean Earth, a division of Enviri Corporation (NYSE: NVRI) and a
leading provider of environmental and regulated waste management
services, has been tapped by the U.S. Department of Defense (“DoD”)
as part of a prototype project to demonstrate remediation
technologies for PFAS, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances.
In its press release, the DoD calls the project “a major step
forward in the effort to provide [it] with commercial PFAS
treatment options for a variety of scenarios.” Clean Earth’s
engagement in this project positions it to help the U.S. Government
better understand its capabilities and dovetails with the company’s
network of facilities, logistics capabilities, and ever-expanding
toolbox of PFAS management technologies.
"This proof of concept will demonstrate our team’s capability to
successfully remediate this critical environmental issue,” said
Jeff Beswick, President of Clean Earth. “This is a high-priority
project, and we stand prepared to support and demonstrate how these
processes can remediate PFAS, helping the DoD achieve its mission
while being friendly to the environment. In this project, Clean
Earth is the hub in the DoD’s hub and spoke strategic remediation
approach."
Clean Earth and five other companies, Aquagga, Arcadis,
374Water, Battelle, and General Atomics, will participate in the
remediation of PFAS-impacted waste collected from two Department of
Defense bases in Pennsylvania (Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base
Willow Grove and Biddle Air National Guard Base, Horsham Township)
with the waste being treated at Clean Earth’s offsite
locations.
"This collaboration represents a synergy of exciting technology,
world-class expertise, and a practical strategy for scale-up and
accelerated commercialization,” said Craig Divine, Ph.D., Arcadis,
Senior Vice President and Project Principal Investigator. “As we
coordinate this pivotal project's implementation and performance
analysis, Arcadis is proud to partner with Clean Earth and
374Water, bringing forth advanced and cost-effective solutions to
tackle PFAS contamination.”
“Clean Earth’s ReSolve™ program has tested various methods to
treat PFAS-contaminated soil and water,” said Beswick. “With
operations covering all 50 states, Clean Earth can support on-site
PFAS remediation or treat it offsite at one of our facilities.
Rather than a short-term fix, we are committed to implementing
sustainable solutions that minimize the long-term risk for our
customers.”
