Calgon Carbon recently published its second peer-reviewed white paper on the reactivation of PFAS laden spent carbon, titled “Destruction of PFAS During Thermal Reactivation of Granular Activated Carbon Used in Potable Water Treatment,” in the Remediation Journal. This study not only reaffirms the proven performance of reactivation but uniquely validates the effectiveness of Calgon Carbon’s proprietary full-scale drinking water reactivation process, commonly referred to as custom municipal reactivation.
In a peer-reviewed article published in 2022 in the highly respected Remediation-The Journal of Environmental Cleanup Costs, Technologies, & Techniques, Calgon Carbon detailed our study at a full-scale manufacturing site on the removal of PFAS from spent activated carbon through a process called reactivation.
This groundbreaking research shows that not only can PFAS be removed from the environment using granular activated carbon, but reactivation can effectively and completely remove those same compounds from the spent carbon and destroy to >99.99%.
