Newterra Launches PFAS Pilot System to Support Customers in Tackling Contamination Challenges

Coraopolis, PA – October 8, 2024 – Newterra, a leader in water and wastewater solutions, is proud to introduce its new PFAS Pilot system, designed to help confront and manage per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) contamination. 

Many customers face difficult PFAS challenges and aren’t sure where to start. With Newterra’s pilot offering, customers can now test solutions on-site, helping them understand which approach will work best before committing to a full-scale system. This hands-on approach provides real-time insights and data under actual site conditions, allowing customers to make informed decisions for long-term PFAS treatment. 

“PFAS contamination is a significant and evolving issue, and Newterra is here to support our customers through every step of the process,” said Kevin Cassidy, CEO of Newterra. “Our pilot systems offer a practical way for customers to start addressing the problem, and we’re committed to helping them find the right solution that fits their needs.” 

A Comprehensive PFAS Solution 

In addition to the pilot system, Newterra brings decades of experience in PFAS treatment. The company’s expertise includes media solutions, including ion exchange resins and granular activated carbon, paired with industry-leading pressure vessel systems designed to optimize media usage and lower energy consumption. These technologies, combined with Newterra’s Carbon and Media Exchange and Rental services, form part of a broader strategy to help customers implement effective, long-term solutions. 

Localized Support and Growth 

Newterra continues to expand its capabilities, recently investing in its Heber Springs, Arkansas manufacturing facility and acquiring companies including Environmental Site Solutions (ESS) and Carbon Service and Equipment Company (CSEC). These developments enhance Newterra’s reach across North America, ensuring that customers can access localized expertise and the right solutions for their unique challenges.

Rain is the New Liability

Across much of North America, rainfall has become more than just a weather event. In regions like California, Oregon, British Columbia, and parts of the Northeastern U.S., regulators increasingly treat storms as compliance triggers. Industrial facilities are being held accountable for the quality of the water that leaves their sites—and the consequences of falling short are becoming more tangible.
