374Water, Inc. partners with DIU, Arcadis, Clean Earth fo PFAS remediation

374Water announced its participation in an environmental initiative led by the Department of Defense. In collaboration with the Defense Innovation Unit, the project focuses on demonstrating advanced technologies to treat persistent and challenging contaminants known as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances. These prototype projects are being carried out in collaboration with the DoD’s Environmental Security Technology Certification Program, the U.S. Air Force, and the U.S. Navy, spanning three DoD-identified installations. As part of this effort, ten companies, including 374Water, have been awarded prototype contracts to develop and showcase innovative solutions for addressing PFAS contamination. 374Water will employ its AirSCWO technology to demonstrate the destruction of PFAS in various forms. These tests, integral to the project’s success, will be conducted at a Clean Earth facility. Arcadis will oversee the project coordination and analytical components, ensuring a comprehensive and collaborative approach to tackling one of the most pressing environmental issues in the United States and the rest of world today.
