- PFAS separation technology developed by EGL proven effective and safe
- Approval enables Reclaim Waste to accept PFAS-contaminated liquid waste
The Environmental Group Limited (EGL) has announced that Reclaim Waste's liquid waste facility has received approval from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to treat PFAS (Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances) at its Laverton facility through EGL's PFAS separation plant. This approval is a significant milestone in EGL and Reclaim Waste's shared commitment to environmental responsibility and innovative waste management practices. The EPA approval is a testament to the effectiveness and safety of the PFAS separation technology developed by EGL, which has been rigorously tested and evaluated to demonstrate its capability to treat PFAS-contaminated waste streams safely and sustainably. This PFAS plant provides Reclaim Waste with commercial opportunities to accept PFAS-contaminated liquid waste while ensuring compliance with the new EPA waste disposal categories, characteristics and thresholds released in March 2025, meeting all PFAS discharge limits. EGL's treatment technology is a low operating and capital cost process that has proven to be highly effective, safe, and sustainable for treating PFAS. EGL was previously granted an Australian patent 2021338584, which covers the Company's processes and apparatus for reducing the concentration of PFAS contamination in wastewater, soil and biosolids, highlighting the Company's commitment to addressing environmental contamination and its contributions to advancements in environmental protection technologies.
