- Selection of upgrade options
- Testing: Validation of technologies, efficacy and simultaneous compliance (side effects)
- Optimization
- Troubleshooting
- Treatability studies
- Generation of site-specific data for design criteria, capital and O&M costs, and life cycle costs for the project report

- Third-party validation for water treatment plants, engineering consultants and/or funding agencies
- Compliance with ever-evolving PFAS regulations
- PFAS waste destruction options (25-50% of treatment costs)
- Expedite your regulatory approval
- Training and securing buy-in from water operators, supporting staff and the authority
- Securing funding from agencies/water authorities
- Boil Water Advisory

Our Process
* First site visit with the stakeholders to
define the problem (1 day)
* A pilot testing proposal and
presentation (1 week)
* Rental pilot installation, calibration,
one-day operation and training by
the supplier (3 weeks)
* Most experiments (4 weeks or more)
* The final report (4 weeks)
The only help needed for
Co-ordinating the first site visit
Supplying raw water and providing an electric connection
Analyzing weekly general water quality parameters like turbidity/pH and sending samples
