A Novel Process of PFAS Removal with MBR Using Silicon Carbide Membranes

NanoSORB technology is presented as a novel approach combining biological treatment and PFAS removal in a single process step using silicon carbide membranes. The technology modifies the activated sludge process by embedding a high-capacity PFAS-sorbing additive within biological floc, ensuring the additive remains associated with the solids phase during membrane separation. A case study at Anson-Madison, Maine demonstrates treatment of landfill leachate and hauled wastewater through MBR, with comprehensive operational and PFAS removal performance data.
