- 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
- Use of WaterAI for process and design optimization and your next project
