Decision

What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-08-20

Proceed with caution

Why
Most mature of the three — EPA/NSF/SERDP/DoD-funded, real containerized hardware, >99.9% destruction with verified mineralization and no air emissions — but commercially still at the pilot/demonstration stage with low throughput suited to concentrated streams only.
Next
Request third-party LC-MS/MS + defluorination data from a completed deployment and per-gallon all-in cost before any concentrated-PFAS-stream pilot; track ER23-8400 results (2027) and the DoD ESTCP final report.
