Landfill leachate

A destruction endpoint for PFAS in landfill leachate

Destroy PFAS, 1,4-dioxane and other solvents in concentrated landfill leachate streams on site, with up to 99.999% destruction demonstrated across long-, short- and ultra-short-chain PFAS.

electraCLEAR™ finishes what concentration starts

Treating landfill leachate often starts by isolating and concentrating PFAS, which leaves a stream with high organic loading and a variable mix of contaminants. electraCLEAR™ is built for that matrix. Its reactor design adapts to shifts in leachate composition and destroys PFAS in the concentrated stream, instead of leaving it to be managed elsewhere.

See how electraclear works

01
Concentrate

Use reverse osmosis and/or foam fractionation to concentrate PFAS and other contaminants into a smaller stream.

02
Matrix-matched

Axine tailors the EOx reactor design based on leachate profile and contaminant loading. electraCLEAR destroys the PFAS and organic load to levels required.

03
Discharge

The electraCLEAR effluent can be discharged directly, or returned to the head of the concentration step, based upon discharge or permit requirements.

Built for landfill reality

Adapted to variable chemistry and operating conditions

Landfill leachate changes by site and over time. Axine configures each electraCLEAR system around the concentrated stream, accounting for water chemistry, flow and treatment requirements to support reliable treatment performance.

Conditioned for treatment: Pretreatment and conditioning can address hardness, COD and other water-quality factors that affect treatment performance
Configured for your leachate: Reactor and electrode configurations are selected around the chemistry, flow and treatment targets of the concentrated stream.
Built to adapt: Modular systems can scale with changing treatment needs, with automated operation and remote monitoring supporting ongoing performance

The economics of destruction

Compare the costs of PFAS management

For concentrated leachate streams, treatment cost is only part of the equation. Compare the recurring costs of managing and hauling PFAS, 1,4-dioxane and other contaminants with the site-specific economics of destroying it on site.
