This collaboration brings an end-to-end
solution to separate, concentrate, transport, and annihilate PFAS
contamination from landfill and industrial waste management
sites
Heritage-Crystal Clean Inc. (Nasdaq: HCCI), through its
wholly-owned subsidiary, a leading provider of environmental and
industrial services, today announces a new partnership with
Allonnia, Revive Environmental, and EPOC Enviro to launch 4never™,
the first closed-loop PFAS remediation solution, to the landfill
and industrial waste management markets.
PFAS, or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, is a group of
chemicals known as “forever chemicals” that have been used in a
wide range of consumer and industrial products. Research has shown
that they have become pervasive in the environment and pose a
health risk when accumulated in the body, creating a need to safely
destroy these contaminants while leaving no harmful byproducts.
4never™ unites the PFAS remediation steps of separation,
concentration, transportation, and destruction to provide an
effective and environmentally responsible solution for landfill
operators and the industrial market.
4never™ combines the power of Surface Active Foam Fractionation
(SAFF®) technology, exclusively distributed by Allonnia in North
America and manufactured by EPOC Enviro, with Revive
Environmental's PFAS Annihilator™ to provide a complete PFAS
elimination process.
Heritage-Crystal Clean (“Crystal Clean”) is the exclusive
distributor and operator of the 4never™ solution to the private
landfill and industrial waste treatment markets, serving clients
through its nationwide network of branches and waste treatment
facilities.
“Our joint vision begins with protecting the Earth’s resources.
Providing a solution which addresses a problem as pervasive as PFAS
is a powerful execution of this vision,” said Crystal Clean’s
President & CEO, Brian Recatto. “The 4never™ solution offers
landfill operators and manufacturers a cost effective and compliant
approach to managing PFAS contaminated leachate and
wastewaters.”
"Allonnia is proud to work with Crystal Clean and our technology
partners, combining SAFF® and PFAS Annihilator™, to create a
solution for the North American market that permanently destroys
what has been labeled a forever chemical,” said CEO of Allonnia,
Nicole Richards. “It is impressive how the landfill market has
embraced the PFAS removal challenge, and it's been incredible to
work with other innovators passionate about solving our most
challenging environmental problems.”
4never™ helps landfill operators and manufacturers improve their
sustainability footprint by removing and destroying PFAS prior to
discharge to their local municipal wastewater treatment
systems.
The hub-and-spoke model begins with a SAFF® unit at the
generating source. Crystal Clean will provide, operate, and service
the SAFF® unit, which separates and concentrates PFAS contaminants
from waste streams. Crystal Clean will then transport the separated
PFAS hyper-concentrate to one of its wastewater treatment
facilities, where Revive Environmental’s PFAS Annihilator™ unit
will destroy the PFAS.
“Revive Environmental is excited to bring its patented, enabling
technology to this partnership,” said Revive Environmental
President and CEO David Trueba. “The PFAS Annihilator™ is the
culmination of years of development and the leading way to
completely destroy PFAS with the confidence that can only be
realized through world-class scientific research.”
Crystal Clean will also implement the SAFF® technology at its
own commercial wastewater treatment facilities to further
concentrate other PFAS contaminated waste streams prior to
destruction using the PFAS Annihilator™. 4never™, the first of its
kind, full-scale, closed-loop PFAS treatment solution will be
offered by the consortium as a service, where customers will pay a
fixed cost per gallon.
