- SELPAXT PFAS Removal Technology
Advanced PFAS removal for complex water
Designed for the PFAS that are hardest to remove
Conventional adsorption technologies – such as activated carbon or ion exchange – can struggle with shorter PFAS compounds, and gradually lose capacity as their media becomes saturated.
SELPAXT takes a different approach. Selective chemistry binds PFAS before separation by ultrafiltration, and the system regenerates automatically rather than relying on a fixed bed of media that wears out – enabling continuous treatment across a broad range of PFAS chain lengths.
How SELPAXT works
SELPAXT is based on Surfactant-Ligand Assisted Membrane Filtration (SAMF).
Proprietary chemistry selectively interacts with PFAS in the incoming water. The PFAS-containing structures are then separated using optimised ultrafiltration membranes.
Automatic regeneration enables continuous treatment, while remote monitoring helps maintain stable performance over time.

Where SELPAXT fits
Landfill leachate
Treatment of PFAS-contaminated leachate with complex, variable water chemistry.
Industrial wastewater
PFAS removal from industrial process and wastewater streams.
RO reject streams
Further concentration of PFAS-rich reject streams to reduce the volume requiring final destruction.
Contaminated groundwater
Treatment of PFAS-contaminated water from firefighting activities and training sites.
Proven in real water
SELPAXT has been demonstrated on several PFAS-contaminated water matrices, including landfill leachate, industrial wastewater, airport-related water and water from firefighting training grounds – with sustained reductions of more than 90% across multiple applications.
