CEU TYPE: Drinking Water Technical (DWT)
WEBINAR TYPE: Technical

 

SUMMARY: This presentation will cover current PFAS drinking water regulations, funding options, evaluation of different treatment technologies, and emerging research, with an emphasis on making strategic decisions to support continued compliance. Case studies will provide practical real-world applications of different PFAS treatment technologies and their associated advantages and disadvantages. As the regulatory landscape evolves, additional PFAS compounds are evaluated and new treatment technologies are introduced, compliance planning becomes more complex.

Attendees will gain practical insights into funding PFAS treatment projects, designing pilot studies to identify appropriate treatment technologies, different types of PFAS treatment technologies with their pros and cons, and understanding compliance monitoring requirements. The presentation is intended to support informed, defensible decision-making in a rapidly changing regulatory environment.
