The Objective

The Water & Carbon Group are leaders in sustainable engineering within the wastewater, environmental and remediation industries. The company has developed a proprietary PFAS extraction system called LEEP (Low Energy Evaporative Fractionation) System ® which is designed to extract PFAS contaminants from wastewater in an environmentally friendly manner.

PFAS (per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances) also known as ‘forever chemicals’ are a group of more than 3,000 manmade chemicals. These chemicals are resistant to breaking down in the environment and have been proven to be harmful to humans. Industrial processes, such as manufacturing are a major contributor of PFAS contamination, along with household chemicals which contaminate municipal wastewater.  

Operators around the world require proven PFAS treatment solutions that are both cost effective and environmentally friendly.

 

The Solution

Many solutions on the market are energy intensive and require the use of chemicals or consumables. The LEEF System® is a sustainable solution, which achieves positive financial and environmental outcomes.

The Water & Carbon Group’s system can be deployed in a wide range of industries globally. With the company headquartered in Australia, they required an easily customizable and scalable WEB-SCADA like platform to remotely monitor, control and automate their dispersed assets. Operating the assets remotely ensures the efficient use of their highly skilled team, contributing to the overall sustainability of the solution.

VROC’s OASIS platform was chosen as the end-to-end data management, monitoring and control solution to support the deployment of the LEEF System®.

The Outcome

With The LEEF System® customers can effectively remove dangerous PFAS chemicals with minimal energy usage and without chemicals. VROC is proud to support The Water & Carbon Group with the platform to monitor and control these systems in an efficient and effective manner.

The team can monitor the system, change settings and automate processes. Real-time and historic data can then be further utilized for optimization and predictive analytics within the same platform.
