We’re proud to announce the publication of Onvector’s latest field results from Joint Base Cape Cod in ES&T Water:
This peer-reviewed study validates our closed-loop, onsite PFAS destruction platform—a major leap beyond conventional PFAS removal or legacy solutions.
What This Means for the Market:
- Field-demonstrated at Joint Base Cape Cod, a federally prioritized PFAS site that will help set the stage for other bases around the country
- Treated 1.2 million liters of PFAS-impacted groundwater and achieved a waste concentration factor of 30,000, thanks to our regenerable ion exchange (IX) concentration partner #ECT2
- Plasma system destroyed 97% of PFAS in high-strength waste; 99.99% total removal with RO (reverse osmosis)
- No liquid discharge—RO recycles into plasma for full waste loop closure
- Zero atmospheric PFAS emissions from the plasma system
- Modular, scalable footprint suitable for both mobile deployment and on-site destruction
- Energy efficiency improves with higher PFAS concentrations
- This study confirms what many in the industry are hoping for: a complete PFAS separation, concentration, and destruction solution
This breakthrough confirms the market viability of onsite PFAS destruction—a growing priority as PFAS liabilities increase and states ban PFAS like AFFF.
What’s Next?
If you want to learn more about how Onvector is focusing on high-concentration PFAS wastes like AFFF, please check out our ESTCP award post.
We’re excited about the path ahead and look forward to building new collaborations across the water, waste, and climate tech ecosystems as we continue scaling this technology.
