PFAS: The water issue of the century
The Headwater Technologies Solution
A Full-Scale, Integrated Approach to PFAS Removal and Destruction
At Headwater Technologies, we deliver turnkey PFAS treatment solutions designed to meet today's most aggressive standards—and tomorrow’s.
Our Solution is Built Around Four Core Pillars:
1. Integrated Treatment Trains – Tailored to Your Site
We combine multiple best-in-class technologies to address a wide range of PFAS types and concentrations:
Ion Exchange Resins – Targeted removal of short and long chain PFAS
Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) – Proven for long-chain PFAS and organics
Zeolite Media – Selective adsorption, ideal for challenging water chemistry and pretreatment
Reverse Osmosis (RO) – High-efficiency barrier for PFAS and other contaminants
Emerging/Destructive Technologies – Foam fractionation, advanced oxidation, and thermal/chemical destruction for full lifecycle treatment
2. Custom Engineering & Piloting
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all. We evaluate water quality, flow rates, site constraints, and regulatory needs to design a system that works for your conditions—with pilot testing to validate performance before full-scale deployment.
3. Full Turnkey Delivery
From design and installation to startup and training, we manage the entire project lifecycle. Our scalable systems support rapid deployment and long-term reliability.
4. End-of-Life & Residuals Management
We provide safe handling, disposal, or destruction of PFAS-laden media and waste streams—helping you close the loop on environmental and regulatory liability.
