PFAS-Contaminated Solids
IQ Energy deliver permanent and deployable Advanced Thermal Treatment infrastructure for PFAS-contaminated solids, spent activated carbon, concentrates and other difficult PFAS residuals.
As PFAS treatment and remediation activities continue to expand, organisations are generating increasing volumes of PFAS-contaminated residuals requiring long-term management. IQ Energy delivers modular Advanced Thermal Treatment systems to support permanent PFAS destruction across a broad range of solid residual streams.
The PFAS challenge is no longer just detection—it's long-term management.
PFAS is increasingly being identified across municipal, industrial, environmental and defence applications. While significant investment is focused on removing PFAS from water, soils and waste streams, these treatment processes often generate concentrated residuals that still require permanent management.
-
PFAS regulations continue to evolve across drinking water, wastewater, biosolids, contaminated land, landfill, industrial operations and defence sites, driving increased demand for long-term management solutions.
-
PFAS treatment technologies successfully separate and concentrate contaminants, creating increasing volumes of spent activated carbon, contaminated soils, concentrates, sludges and other residual materials.
-
As disposal pathways become more constrained, many organisations are seeking treatment approaches that permanently destroy PFAS rather than transferring contaminants to another waste stream.
-
Moving PFAS-contaminated solids to specialist disposal or treatment facilities can significantly increase project costs, logistics and long-term liability. Many organisations are now evaluating more local treatment solutions.
Moving beyond containment toward permanent destruction.
Advanced Thermal Treatment (ATT) provides an alternative approach to conventional disposal pathways by reducing waste volumes, recovering useful energy and creating long-term treatment capacity.
Support the thermal destruction of PFAS-containing residuals, reducing reliance on disposal pathways that transfer contaminants elsewhere.
Permanent Destruction
Deliver treatment capability closer to where PFAS residuals are generated, reducing transport requirements and supporting regional or site-based treatment.
Deployable Infrastructure
Long-Term Management
Provide practical infrastructure for ongoing PFAS management as regulations and treatment volumes continue to evolve.
Supporting a broad range of PFAS-contaminated residuals
Contaminated Soils
Supporting the treatment of PFAS-contaminated soils and other remediation residuals generated through site investigation, remediation and redevelopment projects.
Spent Activated Carbon (GAC)
Permanent management of spent activated carbon generated through drinking water, groundwater, landfill leachate and industrial PFAS treatment systems.
Concentrates & Sludges
Treatment of concentrated PFAS residuals generated through membrane systems, foam fractionation, industrial treatment processes and other separation technologies.
Defence & Government
Deployable and permanent treatment infrastructure supporting defence sites, airports and government PFAS remediation programs.
Industrial PFAS Residuals
Treatment of PFAS-containing residuals generated through manufacturing, industrial wastewater treatment and chemical processing operations.
PFAS destruction requires more than achieving high temperatures. Successful projects depend on selecting the appropriate treatment platform, integrating it into the wider process and delivering infrastructure that meets long-term operational objectives.
Delivering practical PFAS Treatment Infrastructure
-
Our Advanced Thermal Treatment platforms are designed to process a broad range of PFAS-contaminated solids, including spent activated carbon, contaminated soils, concentrates and industrial residuals
-
Our systems incorporate a dedicated high-temperature gas treatment stage designed to support thermal PFAS destruction while managing treatment off-gases under controlled operating conditions.
-
IQ Energy delivers modular Advanced Thermal Treatment systems that can be deployed at remediation sites, defence facilities, regional hubs and industrial locations. By treating PFAS-contaminated residuals closer to where they are generated, organisations can reduce transport costs, simplify logistics and minimise reliance on distant treatment facilities.
-
IQ Energy delivers both hybrid pyro-gasification and pure pyrolysis platforms, allowing the treatment approach to be matched to the feedstock, project objectives and deployment requirements.
-
Our commercial demonstration facility in Alberta supports customer evaluation, project development and commercial deployment of Advanced Thermal Treatment infrastructure.
Matching the Technology to the Application
IQ Energy develops Advanced Thermal Treatment (ATT) systems for difficult residuals. Our technology portfolio includes two complementary platforms, allowing us to match the treatment solution to the feedstock, project objectives and desired outcomes.
G-Series
Hybrid Pyro-Gasification
IQ Energy's preferred Advanced Thermal Treatment (ATT) platform for most commercial applications, developed for municipal biosolids, industrial and organic residuals, and many PFAS destruction applications where energy recovery, volume reduction and operational flexibility are key project drivers.
HTP-Series
Pure Pyrolysis
A specialist Advanced Thermal Treatment (ATT) platform for applications where pure pyrolysis is the preferred treatment pathway. By offering both hybrid pyro-gasification and pure pyrolysis, IQ Energy can match the technology platform to the feedstock and project objectives.
