• First commercial order for EGL's proprietary PFAS treatment technology
• Facility will treat both water and soil contaminated with PFAS
• Uses EGL's foam fractionation technology to safely and effectively extract PFAS

The Environmental Group Limited (ASX: EGL) has received an order for the design and construction of a new $1.9 million PFAS treatment plant. The facility will treat both water and soil contaminated with per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), a persistent environmental pollutant. This project represents a significant step forward in the commercial deployment of EGL's proprietary PFAS treatment technology, following successful field and desktop trials. The solution utilises EGL's foam fractionation technology, engineered to safely and effectively extract PFAS compounds from complex waste streams without the need for chemical pre-treatment. The plant will incorporate advanced automation and remote monitoring, ensuring operational safety, efficiency, and reduced labour requirements. This contract further supports EGL's strategy to lead in the provision of environmental technology solutions that help clients achieve compliance and sustainability outcomes. It also reinforces EGL's core mission of engineering a sustainable future, through practical and scalable infrastructure that directly addresses critical environmental challenges.

EGL believes the PFAS treatment market is a rapidly growing area driven by increasing environmental regulation as evidence emerges of the extent and toxic nature of PFAS substances in the environment and on human health. EGL expects these regulations to drive a market need to remediate legacy sites ahead of redevelopment, as well as for the rehabilitation of active sites and those that impact human use such as agricultural applications, waterways, residential developments, nature reserves and recreational areas.
