PFAS Destruction System Secures First U.S. Sale
Axine Water Technologies will sell its first commercial-scale system for PFAS destruction to Lacks Enterprises Inc.
Axine Water Technologies (Vancouver, Canada) will sell its first commercial-scale system for PFAS destruction to Lacks Enterprises Inc. (Grand Rapids, Mich).
Using its electraClear technology, the companyexecuted a pilot study. This technology works by subjecting the wastewater to a series of electrochemical reactions, achieving 99.9 – 99.999% destruction of all six EPA-regulated forms of PFAS, including the hazardous PFOA and PFOS compounds.
With the EPA issuing new regulations surrounding these compounds, this combined effort has become even more timely. The successful deployment of electraClear technology ensures compliance with regulations and reduces the environmental impact of PFAS.
In early 2023, Axine and Lacks initiated a project to test the electraClear technology. Laboratory testing demonstrated more than 99.98% destruction of PFAS compounds in concentrated wastewater samples.
