Distrito de Bellmawr remedia PFAS antes do cronograma obrigatório do estado

Para atender à necessidade imediata do distrito de Bellmawr, a Veolia implantou rapidamente um sistema conteinerizado de remediação de PFAS que não exigia um edifício, podia ser colocado diretamente no solo e é protegido contra as condições climáticas. Não foram necessários tanques expostos. A instalação e as conexões foram feitas de modo rápido e simples.

The containerized unit employs a PFAS selective, single-use anion exchange resin for treating the PFAS. It is an exceptionally high-capacity resin, lasting typically more than a year before an exchange is required. The system is arranged in a lead/lag configuration to optimize PFAS treatment, assure longevity, and provide the security of a polishing vessel. When the bed nears exhaustion, after a period of 12 to 15 months, Veolia replaces the resin to keep the treatment running continuously. The exhausted resin is removed and incinerated.

The decision of using Veolia’s temporary containerized solution was based on these factors:

• High capacity, extended run-time
• Low labor requirement
• Limited footprint
• “Plug and Play” installation simplicity
• Few required exchanges versus alternate media such as carbon
• Low electrical load
• “New” aesthetically-pleasing outer housing that can protect the equipment inside from casual observation, as well as from the weather.
