This project aims to develop a self contained skid-based transportable process for onsite destruction of per- and poly-fluroalkyl substances (PFAS) toxins at contaminated sites. The new technologies developed will span a range of application areas, although remediation of sites contaminated with PFAS by ongoing or legacy use of fire-fighting foams is a key target for this project. The process is expected to enable remediation of these sites by completely converting all toxins into safe products such as carbon dioxide and harmless salts. This project will deliver significant benefits, as the process is easily scalable and is intended to form the basis of a new or expanded remediation industry in Australia, resulting in manufacturing growth, job opportunities and significant impacts in terms of environmental safety and quality.

该项目旨在开发一种独立的橇装运输工艺，用于在受污染场地现场销毁全氟烷基和多氟烷基物质毒素。开发的新技术将跨越一系列应用领域，尽管对因持续使用或遗留使用灭火泡沫而受到PFAS污染的场地进行补救是该项目的一个关键目标。预计这一过程将通过将所有毒素完全转化为二氧化碳和无害盐等安全产品来对这些场所进行补救。该项目将带来重大效益，因为该工艺易于扩展，旨在为澳大利亚新的或扩大的补救行业奠定基础，从而促进制造业增长，创造就业机会，并对环境安全和质量产生重大影响。
