Veolia North America, the leading provider of environmental
solutions in the U.S. and Canada, today expands its PFAS treatment
and compliance capabilities with the launch of its BeyondPFAS
offering, combining Veolia’s proven technical capability in PFAS
treatment and disposal with its skill in helping customers navigate
regulatory requirements and identify funding resources. This unique
combination of engineering, managerial, operational, technological
and regulatory expertise provides Veolia’s customers with a
one-stop shop for PFAS services, offering peace of mind about PFAS
issues and allowing them to enhance and take control of their
efforts to mitigate risk and maintain public trust in water
sources.
BeyondPFAS is the most advanced end-to-end PFAS management
solution on the market, designed to support businesses and
governments confronted with new regulatory and legal requirements
for designated PFAS compounds encountered in their operations. As a
pioneer in the treatment of pollutants in drinking water, soil and
hazardous waste, Veolia is a key player across the entire value
chain, from detection to complete disposal. By combining the skills
of its water, waste and energy businesses worldwide, Veolia can act
from the earliest stages of detecting pollutants to ensure their
effective treatment and sustainable disposal.
With almost 15,000 employees in North America and decades of
operational experience implementing complex technology solutions,
Veolia works across traditional business boundaries to sample for
regulated PFAS compounds, engineer the best individualized
solutions, put them into operation at scale, and manage the secure
handling and disposal of regulated PFAS compounds removed from
water, waste and other sources.
Estelle Brachlianoff, Veolia's Chief Executive Officer
said, “The PFAS offer is a perfect illustration of Veolia's value
creation model. It was made possible by our ability to combine all
our expertise across the entire pollution treatment value chain.
This is the most comprehensive end-to-end offering on the market,
combining our skills in diagnostics, water treatment and waste
management, providing a complete, innovative and best value for
money solution to this major environmental challenge.”
Veolia North America CEO Frédéric Van Heems said, “Veolia
is a global leader in PFAS treatment with a full array of solutions
across the spectrum of PFAS, and our BeyondPFAS effort marks an
evolution in our ability to provide our customers with the
end-to-end solutions they need. BeyondPFAS’ tailored approach helps
you streamline implementation, optimize costs, minimize risks and
secure long-term operational efficiency. America’s PFAS challenges
are still emerging, and Veolia is here to help America face
them.”
Proven PFAS capabilities for treatment and management
PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are found everywhere
in our environment. Some of them are a pressing environmental and
public health concern, impacting drinking water supplies,
ecosystems and communities globally. Whether in water, soil, waste
or solids, these compounds pose significant challenges, from
widespread contamination to complex treatment requirements and
disposal considerations — all in the context of evolving
regulations.
Veolia provides drinking water to more than 9 million people
across the United States and is in the forefront of the fight
against PFAS. It has treated more than 24 billion gallons of water
for PFAS at more than 30 sites, with dozens more under construction
or in planning. Veolia moved quickly to develop evaluation,
measurement and treatment plans for water systems it owns and
operates across six states, launching PFAS mitigation systems in
many cases before any regulatory requirement to do so took
effect.
Veolia also operates and maintains 80 drinking water systems
across the country on behalf of municipalities and is helping many
of them evaluate and make their own decisions to address new
regulatory requirements for PFAS mitigation. The BeyondPFAS
solution encompasses lessons Veolia has learned from planning and
implementing these systems across dozens of drinking water systems,
providing readiness for public water systems seeking a
full-capability provider.
The BeyondPFAS suite of offerings is also ready for industries
and businesses confronting the challenge of regulated PFAS
compounds in their water supplies, work processes or waste streams.
It streamlines Veolia’s offerings with a holistic approach from
initial site assessment and sampling, to implementation of tailored
treatment technologies, through proper handling and disposing of
contaminants in line with current EPA-recommended methods such as
incineration, deep well injection and secured, approved
landfills.
Veolia’s innovative disposal solutions to meet compliance
requirements and safeguard environmental interests include secure
landfilling and deep well injection. Veolia’s state-of-the-art
high-temperature incineration facility in Port Arthur, Texas is
permitted to treat a range of hazardous and CERCLA waste, and has a
destruction and removal efficiency of 99.9999%. All Veolia
solutions are scientifically proven and fully EPA-compliant.
As science and the public continue to learn more about PFAS
compounds, Veolia’s BeyondPFAS offering will become a key part of
the company’s strategy to bolster its leading role in addressing
the world’s ecological problems. It also exemplifies the goals of
Veolia’s global GreenUp strategy, which strives to lead the
ecological transformation of the planet by accelerating water
quality improvement, hazardous waste treatment and disposal,
decarbonization and technological innovation.
