UPDATE: Pyto remediating of PFAS training site with figures
Now we have some preliminary results from this small non scientific trial using phytoremediation showing a uptake of 15-30mg/ha/year. We use a simple “pump and treat” by recirculate a groundwater over a plot 80m2 planted with willow. The total Pfas in the recirculated water was about 300 000ng/l in the start and over the summerContinue reading “UPDATE: Pyto remediating of PFAS training site with figures”

Now we have some preliminary results from this small non scientific trial using phytoremediation showing a uptake of 15-30mg/ha/year. We use a simple “pump and treat” by recirculate a groundwater over a plot 10x10m planted with willow. The total pfas in the recirculated water was about 300 000ng/l in the start and over the summerContinue reading “UPDATE: Pyto remediating of PFAS training site”
Test of firestation washwater with bio-char
After a call-out and returning to the station, hoses and equipment must be washed and uniforms wash and re-imprinted before the next call-out. The washing water can then contain all kinds of pollution’s ranging from un-burned fuels, soot, heavy metals and a cocktail of organic residues including Pfas. Analysis levels of Pfas 11 could beeContinue reading “Test of firestation washwater with bio-char”
