The answer to #PFAS in Sydney’s waterways lies in their backyard As society becomes more aware of the challenges posed by the presence of PFAS in our waterways, here at EPOC Enviro, we have spent the best part of the last decade quietly pioneering a range of world leading PFAS removal technologies from our home base in Western Sydney. These solutions have then been exported to the world. In 2016, we invented a novel PFAS extraction technique known as #SurfaceActiveFoamFractionation (#SAFF®). We have now built more than 40 PFAS water treatment plants which have been shipped to numerous sites around Australia, US and Europe to successfully remediate PFAS from impacted waters.

📢 We are an Aussie company, setting the standard in sustainable and cost-effective #PFAS remediation! At EPOC Enviro, based in Western Sydney, we are leading the global market in the design and delivery of PFAS treatment plants. Back in 2016, our talented team of scientists and engineers developed a patented process known as Surface Active Foam Fractionation (#SAFF®). This naturally elegant process harnesses the attractive forces on the surface of rising air bubbles to attract and bind harmful PFAS molecules. The result? A harvestable foam that allows for the efficient capture, removal, and destruction of PFAS from impacted waters. We’re proud of the role our innovative SAFF® technology continues to play in tackling this immense environmental challenge.

📣 Here EPOC Enviro, we are enormously proud of our technology’s involvement in a recent #PFAS remediation project in the USA which resulted in the successful treatment of 1.46 million gallons of PFAS impacted waters. This was arguably one of the world’s largest PFAS remediation efforts and took place over a three-week period. This project was an initiative of 4never™, which is a closed-loop PFAS remediation solution offered collectively by EPOC Enviro and our partners Crystal Clean and Allonnia. The PFAS processing plant utilised four of EPOC Enviro’s #SAFF® (Surface Active Foam Fractionation) units to treat a variety of PFAS impacted event and site waters.

New to the world of #PFAS remediation? We highly recommend this article in Waste Advantage Magazine which highlights how PFAS has become a global contaminant, its prevalence in #landfillleachate, and then summarises some of the PFAS remediation and destruction technologies currently on the market. You can view the article here 👇 https://lnkd.in/gbYZZnNg Eagle eyed readers may spot EPOC Enviro's #SAFF® technology in the images. SAFF® technology has pioneered the use of foam fractionation to separate and concentrate target PFAS contaminants from impacted waters, permanently removing them from the environment. The technology has recently achieved a 1 billion litres remediation milestone.

🔊 SAFF® Hyper-Concentrator – Maximum throughput, minimum waste! #SAFF® is a three stage process that removes #PFAS and reduces it into a tiny volume of PFAS enriched concentrate. In high foaming waters, the third SAFF® stage, which we call ‘tertiary’, can take some time and potentially slow the overall throughput of the SAFF®. The EPOC Enviro SAFF® Hyper-Concentrator is a breakthrough technology which bolts onto the standard SAFF40®. It takes secondary PFAS waste from multiple SAFF® systems and further reduces it some 20-200 times (depending on site specific water chemistry) to create a low volume, high concentration PFAS foamate, ready for destruction. Placement of an EPOC SAFF® Hyper-Concentrator with up to four SAFF® units creates an efficient treatment train where each stage of the remediation process is optimised, and large volumes of PFAS impacted water can be rapidly processed and then concentrated ready for seamless destruction.

A new study by #LiveScience has revealed that it is possible for #PFAS to enter the human bloodstream via penetration of the skin. The study contradicts earlier held assumptions that the skin would act as a barrier for penetration. PFAS are known to exist in a diversity of skin-interactive products including cosmetics, skincare products and waterproof clothing. The study tested 17 different PFAS compounds. It found that while both long and short chain PFAS compounds could pass through into the blood stream via dermal exposure, short chain compounds were more easily absorbed.

✳ Question: Describe the #SAFF® Hyper-Concentrator in a sentence? ✅ The SAFF® Hyper-Concentrator seamlessly integrates with one or more SAFF® systems to turbo charge the #PFAS concentration process, optimising management of large volume PFAS impacted waters while creating a PFAS-rich foamate ready for destruction. Find out more by visiting the EPOC Enviro News page: https://lnkd.in/gWZ8YZkH Alternatively, reach out to our technical team via info@epocenviro.com for more information on how the SAFF® Hyper-Concentrator can assist with PFAS remediation at your site. #SurfaceActiveFoamFractionation #NaturallyElegant #PFASRemediation #PFASSolutions #EverywhereChemicals

What’s better than one #SAFF®? How about four working in tandem! What’s even more impressive? This collection of SAFF's was operating in one of the world’s largest #PFAS foam fractionation projects, at a confidential industrial site in the mid-west USA. Over the course of three weeks, some 1.46 million gallons of PFAS impacted waters was successfully remediated using this 4never® solution, which is a joint initiative between EPOC Enviro, Crystal Clean and Allonnia. “With the recent release of Maximum Contaminant Levels by the U.S. EPA in relation to drinking waters for six PFAS compounds, as well as #CERCLA designation of #PFOS and #PFOA, having a proven and environmentally friendly method of managing PFAS has never been more relevant,” said EPOC Enviro President, Peter Murphy.

The newly launched #SAFF® Hyper-Concentrator is EPOC Enviro’s latest #PFAS remediation technology innovation. The SAFF® Hyper-Concentrator can be seamlessly coupled with up to four SAFF units to receive and further refine their PFAS laden waste streams, creating a minimal waste, maximum flow treatment train for effective management of larger volumes of PFAS-impacted waters. Significantly, the technology accepts and further reduces secondary PFAS concentrate received from the SAFF systems by an impressive 20-200 times. In simple terms the Hyper-Concentrator allows our clients to generate less than 1 gallon of PFAS waste for every 10,000 – 1,000,000 gallons of water processed – dependent on water type. Housed in a 40’ foot shipping container, the system comprises five individual hyper-concentration vessels, each operating in batch mode within their own ultra safe enclosed booth. Once the hyper concentration process has concluded, the relatively tiny volume of PFAS-rich foamate is ready for destruction using any of the leading destruction technologies available today. #PFASRemediation #PFASSolutions #SurfaceActiveFoamFractionation #NaturallyElegant
