MANAGING AFFF IMPACTS TO SUBSURFACE ENVIRONMENTS AND ASSESSMENT OF COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE FLUORINE-FREE FOAMS
Crimi, M. and J. Back, SERDP & ESTCP Webinar Series, Webinar #100, October 2019
SERDP and ESTCP sponsored two presentations on projects addressing aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) activities at DoD sites. The first presented viable approaches for treating recalcitrant PFAS and recent related research activity. The treatment technology discussion addressed challenges and limitations, including the presence of precursors and co-contaminants and the generation of byproducts. Research is ongoing at Clarkson University to advance and optimize PFAS treatment technologies, with emphasis on treatment trains for more efficient and effective remediation. The second presentation discussed an ongoing project that aims to identify potential commercially available agents as alternatives for AFFF. A database of potential firefighting agents will be started for future reference. https://www.serdp-estcp.org/Tools-and-Training/Webinar-Series/10-17-2019
