PFAS removal with SELPAXT

Landfills serves (and have served) as the final repository for more 50 % of municipal and industrial solid wastes. Because of their widespread uses and persistence in the environment, PFAS are ubiquitously present in everyday consumer, commercial and industrial products, and have been widely detected in both closed and active landfills due to disposal of PFAS-containing materials

EPA published the Effluent Guidelines Program Plan in January 2023, evaluating discharge data from over 200 landfills from across the US and found PFAS present in the leachate at over 95 percent of the landfills. PFAS detections included 63 different PFAS with average concentrations for an individual compound as high as 14,000 parts-per-trillion.

SELPAXT is ideal for PFAS removal in leachate
SELPAXT, our unique, patented technology that delivers efficient removal of up to >99% of both long and short PFAS chains from water. Ideal for high-concentration PFAS water streams, SELPAXT ensures consistent, cost-efficient removal over extended periods.
 
With a container-based solution, SELPAXT seamlessly integrates into existing water treatment systems. SELPAXT offers complete, small footprint installations with low energy consumption, making them ideal to connect to existing treatment processes. All installations are individually configured for the specific water streams on site, thanks to a thorough analysis of each and every water stream. The SELPAXT process is already trusted by several organizations around Europe who have experienced a significant reduction of PFAS in their leachate.

CUSTOMER REFERENCE

Removing short chain PFAS
from landfill leachate

The waste management plant suffered from very high levels (90-95%) of short-chain PFAS in the landfill leachate. The customer spent two years searching for a solution to remove PFAS without any real success, screening 30+ suppliers and testing 10 methods – before evaluating SELPAXT.

SELMEXT removes heavy metals from leachate

Landfills contain harmful heavy metals such as lead, mercury, cadmium, and chromium. They are really bad for the environment, and find their way in through dumped electronics or industrial trash, causing metal contamination over time. The focus for leachate  is usually on biological treatment. In many cases there is no treatment process for heavy metals in place.

SELMEXT is ideal for heavy metal removal in leachate
The SELMEXT technology is selective for the metals/substances to be removed enabling both an effective treatment to low residual levels and a minimal amount of waste leaving behind a high quality, particle free, water stream after SELMEXT treatment

With a container-based solution, SELMEXT seamlessly integrates into existing water treatment systems. SELMEXT offers complete, small footprint installations with low energy consumption, making them ideal to connect to existing treatment processes. All installations are individually configured for the specific water streams on site, thanks to a thorough analysis of each and every water stream.
