Compared to technologies like carbon filtration or ion
exchange, the BioLargo AEC produces far less PFAS-laden waste during the PFAS
removal process, significantly reducing potential hazardous waste disposal
costs associated with PFAS remediation projects, and is able to remove all
specified PFAS chemicals from water below EPA and state requirements.
Once the AEC system is installed, BioLargo will enter into an
ongoing service contract for the maintenance of the system as well as the removal
and disposal and destruction of the PFAS-laden waste.
John W. Clark, Jr. President of Lake Stockholm Systems, Inc.
said, “After an extensive review of the available technologies, including input
from our engineers and the state of New Jersey, we selected the BioLargo AEC to
ensure the drinking water in our community was free of harmful PFAS chemicals.
BioLargo’s solution will give us the peace of mind and guarantee that we can
meet remediation requirements, both today and in the future.”
BioLargo’s President and CEO Dennis P. Calvert commented,
“Lake Stockholm Systems recognized our technology as a more eco-friendly,
regulation-friendly, and cost-effective long-term solution for treating water
contaminated by PFAS. We believe the success of this project will play a big
role in attracting further municipal water treatment customers, many of whom
are still under the misconception that carbon filtration or ion exchange are
the only options for long-term PFAS remediation.”
Mr. Calvert continued, “Our technology reduces costs
customers pay to dispose of the harmful and hazardous waste produced by any
technology removing PFAS from water. For example, where a carbon system might
produce 80,000 pounds of hazardous spent carbon at the end of its life, we can
treat the same volume of water and produce less than five pounds of solid
waste. With CERCLA and RCRA regulations looming, which will require handling
PFAS-laden solid waste as hazardous materials, legacy technologies simply won’t
be able to compete with the AEC in this area.”
