What is PFAS?

PFAS have been labeled “forever” chemicals due to their highly-stable chemical structure. This stability means that PFAS chemicals have no known method of effective and permanent degradation, and as a result, most all of the PFAS that has been released into our environment remains there today.

This widespread contamination of PFAS has shown detrimental health effects in both humans and animals, being linked to dozens of severe health issues. PFAS has been tied to a variety of cancers including kidney, testicular, and breast cancer, low birth-weights, miscarriages, immune-system suppression, thyroid disease, and obesity. It has been shown that once PFAS enters the body and is absorbed by fat cells, it remains there forever with no method of removal or elimination. Additionally, multiple blood studies over previous years have shown that nearly 99% of all humans tested for PFAS showed PFAS presence in their blood. This reality sets a sobering tone toward the continually expanding understanding of the impact of PFAS on the human body, and just how widespread its contamination truly is.

Recent surveys have shown PFAS presence in almost every location which was tested. Since 2019, the US has shown an increase in PFAS contaminated sites from 610, to 2,337. This represents only 16% of the United States that has been tested for PFAS. These contaminated sites represent public and private water sources, as well as military installations known for using fire-suppression foams containing PFAS. While this number may seem large, it is only a fraction of the true contamination level present across the U.S.

Until now, the best method for PFAS “disposal” has been dumping contaminated PFAS capture media into local landfills, burying it, and hoping for the best. While this option may seem acceptable today, it has been shown that the PFAS chemicals in this waste will inevitably wash out into ground water sources and return to once-again contaminate the environment. Even lined-landfills have been found to leach PFAS into the environment.

MossParker Technologies has developed a state-of-the-art process to not only remove PFAS and its detrimental effects from the environment, but also to effectively destroy the PFAS molecule at its core. This revolutionary process breaks down the PFAS molecule to harmless residues that are unable to reform into PFAS molecules, thereby removing present contamination, while also ensuring recontamination can never happen again.

The MossParker system is the only effective method available that can both remove PFAS from the environment, and completely destroy PFAS at its core, all through a low-energy, cost-effective, environmentally friendly method.
