Many manufacturing companies have surplus property that has come to include contaminated soil and groundwater. These contaminants may stand in the way of selling off that property in the future – or for other companies to buy it. Of the many emerging contaminants, one that is of growing concern is PFAS – increasingly under U.S.- EPA scrutiny, with some chemicals within this family of manufactured compounds being designated as hazardous.
Onvector’s Plasma Vortex is a destruction technology that can work in tandem with other remediation technologies upstream focusing removal, separation and concentration of the PFAS contaminants. This facilitates obtaining the necessary permits to allow the property to go on to its next use.
