  • Ex-situ Soil Washing to Remove PFAS Adsorbed to Soils from Source Zones
    The objective of this project is to develop an optimized design to adapt the time-tested technology of Soil Washing to efficiently remove PFAS from impacted soils. The approach was optimized to clean the sand and gravel and separate the fines and organics for secondary treatment. Next generation soil washing is focused on treating fines and organics.

  • Molecular Design of Effective and Versatile Adsorbents of Ex-Situ Treatment of AFFF Impacted Groundwater
    The objective of this project was to use the ability of PFAS to bind with proteins and employ a combination of both molecular modeling techniques and batch testing to verify whether these protein interactions can be tuned to efficiently absorb a variety of different PFAS, thus opening a pathway to develop bio-based PFAS sorbents for the treatment of AFFF impacted groundwater.

  • Women In PFAS - Ep. 3 - Passive Sampler Development
    Today on the Women in PFAS podcast, we're focusing on a tool designed to answer one of the hardest questions in PFAS management: How do we really know what's moving through our systems and when?
    We'll talk about why early detection matters, how the passive X sampler fits into real world operations and what better data can mean for utilities, regulators, and communities navigating the evolving PFAS landscape. Join host Amanda Berger and guest Erika Carter for the discussion.

  • Women In PFAS - Ep. 2 - What's really in landfill leachate, and how can we manage PFAS?
    Welcome back to the Women in PFAS podcast, the show where we highlight the experts, innovators, and leaders who are shaping the future of water and environmental resilience.
    Join host Amanda Berger as we dive into a topic that sits at the intersection of waste water and public health, PFAS, and landfill leachate. If you've been following the national conversation, you know that PFAS don't stay put. Every product we throw away has the potential to leach these, what we call forever chemicals into the liquid that forms at the bottom of landfills. And that leachate ultimately finds its way to wastewater treatment plants, or other disposal locations that were never designed for PFAS.
    Today we the science, the challenges, and the solutions: what's really in landfill leachate, and how are utilities and solid waste facilities adapting?
    We're joined by Dr. Johnsie Lang, leading real work, the laboratory, and on the ground, someone who brings deep technical insight and a practical operations driven perspective to one of the toughest environmental issues of our time.

  • Women In PFAS - Ep. 1 - What is the chemistry of PFAS?
    Welcome to Arcadis PFAS, Women Behind the Science, a podcast celebrating the brilliant women leading the charge against one of the most complex environmental challenges of our time, PFAS. This podcast is intended to take you inside the science, engineering, and innovation shaping how we manage this persistent environmental challenge.
    Across the country, Arcadians are designing and implementing PFAS solutions that are grounded in science and built for scale, from rapid site characterization and treatment pilots to full-scale design and operation of PFAS removal systems. In Episode 1, we're joined by Dr. Theresa Guillette to discuss the chemistry of PFAS.

  • How PFAS Moves from AFFF Areas to Groundwater
    Join our host Craig Divine and our guest Charles Schaefer.
    You are listening to The PFAS Research and Remediation Podcast, produced and created by Arcadis with funding from the Environmental Security Technology Certification Program, ESTCP grant number ER-23 7692 through the United States Department of Defense.
    The Environmental Security Technology Certification Program (ESTCP) is the U.S. Department of Defense’s environmental technology demonstration and validation program. The program’s goal is to identify and assess innovative technologies that address DoD’s high-priority environmental requirements efficiently and cost-effectively.
    In this second season, we're focused on PFAS and interview a broad panel of experts who have each contributed to the growing knowledge base around remediating this emerging chemical of concern. Today we'll be speaking with Dr. Charles Schaefer, an environmental scientist and director of CDM Smith’s research lab in Bellevue, Washington. His work focuses on understanding and treating PFAS contamination in groundwater and soil. A leading researcher with over 50 scientific publications, he has led major SERDP and ESTCP projects and received multiple Project of the Year awards. Today, we’ll be talking with him about several projects exploring how PFAS move through the unsaturated zone in AFFF source areas and potentially migrate into groundwater.

Today we'll be speaking with Dr. Michelle Crimi, the Dean of the Graduate School at Clarkson University, and Co-founder of RemWell. Dr. Crimi is a Professor at Clarkson University that studies innovative ways to clean up contaminated groundwater and protect aquifer health through smarter, more effective treatment technologies. Today, we will talk on her ESTCP project ER21- 5045 Sonolysis-Based In-Situ PFAS Destruction within an HRX Well.
