PFAS Zero: Innovative Treatment and Disposal Options
COURSE CONTENT
- This course is a comprehensive guide that thoroughly explains the challenges and solutions for targeting PFAS below non-detectable levels in treated drinking water and safely disposing of concentrated PFAS waste.
- It presents the health impacts of PFAS, its molecular structure (see the photo on the side), main types, regulatory US and EU requirements, Health Canada Guidelines, proper US monitoring and testing procedures, and more.
What participants will learn?
- Cutting-edge PFAS treatment technologies include GAC, AIX (see photos below), nanofiltration/ RO and novel absorbents. This section discusses their efficacy, limitations, design criteria, case studies, safe disposal technologies and more.
- This course transforms complicated PFAS into simple PFAS and connects current research into drinking water plant operation at the same time in the ever-changing PFAS regulatory landscape.
Course Approvals in California, Texas, Illinois,& Massachusetts (the US) & Ontario (Canada)
- The California State Water Resource Control Board, Texas Commission of Environmental Quality (Course ID # 1784), Massachusetts - MassDEP Drinking Water Program(ID # DWT-2024-79) and Illinois Environmental Protection Agency(ID # 21416) approved this PFAS course for 0.7 CEUs while awaiting approvals from Florida, Michigan, New York, and other US states.
- The Ontario Ministry of the Environment Director (Canada) has also approved this PFAS course (ID # 17375), which earns 0.7 CEUs for operators under O. Reg. 128/04 in Ontario.
- Water operators outside California, Texas, and Ontario will receive an attendance certificate acknowledging their commitment to professional development.
- This PFAS course will also be delivered to professional engineers (dates to be announced). It will focus on process design aspects, GAC, and ion exchange design examples. Licensed professional engineers in Ontario, Canada, will get 0.7 CPUs, and the rest of the participants will receive an attendance certificate.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
- Water treatment operators
- Supervisors, managers, decision-makers, regulatory agencies/inspectors and other PFAS stakeholders
- Professional/process/environmental engineers/consultants (TBA)

Anion Ion Exchange DWT for PFAS removal
Anion exchange is a relatively new drinking water treatment process that is gaining importance because it is one of two of the most viable and reliable PFAS drinking water treatment processes. Although it is very effective in a short contact time, it can significantly change the chlorination process and deteriorate distribution water quality in terms of pH, alkalinity, and corrosion capability.
Ozone and Biofiltration

Anion Ion Exchange DWT for PFAS removal
Ozone is a strong disinfectant ( e.g. Cryptosporidium) and oxidant (e.g. taste and odour-causing compounds). Ozone improves the taste of treated .
Biofiltration is essential after ozone to reduce biodegradable compounds generated by ozone. Overall, combined ozone and biofiltration treatments provide a robust drinking water treatment.
Membranes

Membranes
The water Treatment Industry uses microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration and reverse osmosis systems to produce safer drinking water based on the site-specific conditions. The membrane system has a smaller footprint and can be automated easily due to working on various pore sizes and pressures. However, the designer/operators need to manage a concentrated waste stream.
