AFFF DECONTAMINATION
Applications For Firefighting Vehicles and Industrial Fire Suppression Systems
As regulations require that PFAS containing AFFF products are replaced by fluorine-free foams, rinsing and flushing out the systems, tanks, and proportioning piping is essential. Evidence shows that simply flushing the systems with water is not effective at removing residual PFAS compounds from the surfaces. Recontamination of the replacement flourine-free foams with PFAS is inevitable.
PerfluorAd® is an efficient and cost-effective solution to both flushing the system and treating the rinse water. This technology is suitable for:
-
Mobile Fire Engines, Boats & Airport Rescue & Firefighting Tenders (ARFF)
-
Industrial Fire Suppression systems / Fixed Foam Extinguishing Installations
Just 3 to 5 flushes with PerfluorAd® from a typical starting concentration of 40,000 μg/l PFAS leaves a residual concentration in flush water of less than 1.5 μg/l, a 99.9% removal. Subsequent recontamination is then entirely prevented.
Contrary to other emerging treatment technologies, waste-water from the flushing process is then also treated using our PerfluorAd® process which significantly reduces residual waste requiring incineration/destruction by thousands or even tens of thousands of litres. The treated water can then be repeatedly re-used for further PerlfuorAd® flushes, discharged or readily disposed.
