Combined In Situ/Ex Situ Treatment Train for Remediation of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) Contaminated Groundwater

Abstract

Key challenges to treating per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS)-impacted sites include the broadrange of PFAS present, the presence of polyfluorinated precursors that transform into perfluoroalkylacids (PFAAs), the recalcitrance of PFAAs, and the current lack of in situ approaches forimplementing aggressive chemical treatment processes. As no single treatment technique can addressall of these challenges, the objective of this project was to develop a set of combined in situ/ex situtreatment approaches for the efficient and effective treatment of PFAS-impacted groundwater throughthe evaluation of the feasibility and effectiveness of a range of treatment train approaches along withcost drivers and challenges for field-scale implementation.
