PFAS solutions for waste management
Forever chemical cycle
PFAS are circulating across the U.S., contaminating our environment and forcing passive receivers to confront these harmful pollutants. Heartland provides a comprehensive PFAS solution, empowering you to take control and eliminate these persistent chemicals for good.
Assured PFAS separation & destruction
Landfill Leachate
Landfills, as passive receivers, must manage and contain PFAS to prevent its spread into the environment. Heartland’s PFAS separation and concentration technology handles liquid waste streams, creating a concentrated residual ready for safe disposal at the landfill or destruction—ensuring effective PFAS management and environmental protection.
Biosolids
The US generates over 4.5 million tons of biosolids annually while traditional disposal methods such as landfill disposal and incineration decline due to PFAS concerns. Destroy PFAS on-site and end the cycle.
Industrial Wastewaters
As industries continues to navigate the regulatory path being forged by PFAS, concentrating wastewater on-site makes residual products more efficient to manage and dispose of.
GAC/IX
Bluefield Research forecasts that drinking water utilities will spend nearly $13.5 billion on PFAS retrofits over the next 7 years, with most dedicated to installing granular activated carbon (GAC) filtration. Destroy PFAS in the residual product on-site and end the cycle.
Regulations are Forcing Change
Efforts to regulate PFAS are escalating at state and federal levels. The EPA has set legally enforceable maximum contaminant levels (MCLs) for certain PFAS in drinking water, while many states have established their own regulations.
Additionally, the EPA has classified some PFAS as hazardous substances under CERCLA and proposed several hazardous constituents under RCRA. These regulations drive the need for effective PFAS management solutions.
