A method of removing chemical contaminants from a composition comprising an active, a solvent, and a contaminant can include providing an initial feed supply, wherein the initial feed supply comprises the active, the solvent, and the contaminant, wherein the contaminant can include 1,4 dioxane, dimethyl dioxane, or a combination thereof; including filtering the initial feed stock through a nanofilter and using reverse osmosis.

A system for treating a source of water contaminated with PFAS is disclosed. The system includes a PFAS separation stage having an inlet fluidly connectable to the source of water contaminated with PFAS, a diluate outlet, and a concentrate outlet and a PFAS elimination stage positioned downstream of the PFAS separation stage and having an inlet fluidly connected to an outlet of the PFAS separation stage, the elimination of the PFAS occurring onsite with respect to the source of water contaminated with PFAS, with the system maintaining an elimination rate of PFAS greater than about 99%. A method of treating water contaminated with PFAS is also disclosed. The method includes introducing contaminated water from a source of water contaminated with a first concentration of PFAS to an inlet of a

PFAS separation stage, treating the contaminated water in the PFAS separation stage to produce a product water substantially free of PFAS and a PFAS concentrate having a second PFAS concentration greater than the first PFAS concentration, introducing the PFAS concentrate to an inlet of a PFAS elimination stage; and activating the PFAS elimination stage to eliminate the PFAS in the PFAS concentrate. A method of retrofitting a water treatment system as described herein is also disclosed. The method includes providing a PFAS elimination module as described herein and fluidly connecting the PFAS elimination module downstream of a PFAS separation stage.

An apparatus for the treatment of wastewater having: a primary treatment module with at least one solids separation filter; a secondary treatment module with at least one microflotation unit and at least one oxidation treatment unit placed downstream of the at least one microflotation unit, the at least one oxidation treatment unit has an advanced oxidation process module for performing chemical processes, the advanced oxidation process module performing an ozone and hypochlorite treatment; a tertiary treatment module including at least one membrane filtration unit; the apparatus provided with sequentially flowing wastewater from the primary treatment module, through the secondary treatment module, and to the tertiary treatment module. A method for wastewater treatment in an apparatus having as sequentially treating wastewater through the primary treatment module, the secondary treatment module, and the tertiary treatment module.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are destroyed by oxidation in supercritical conditions. PFAS in water is concentrated in a reverse osmosis step and salt from the resulting solution is removed in supercritical conditions prior to destruction of PFAS in supercritical conditions.

A method and system is provided for treating waste generated from manufacturing operations including at least one of Printed Circuit Boards Fabrication (PCB FAB), General Metal Finishing (GMF), semiconductors manufacturing, chemical milling, and Physical Vapour Deposition (PVD). The method and system are used to create zero liquid discharge recycling.

A system and a method for water purification are provided. An exemplary system includes a multimedia filter, an ozone generator, an ozone contactor coupled to the ozone generator, and a ceramic membrane filter coupled to an air scouring system, wherein the air scouring system is coupled to the ozone generator. A storage tank is coupled to a purified water line from the ceramic membrane filter, wherein the storage tank is coupled to a backwashing line coupled to the multimedia filter.

A desulfurization system has an oxidation process unit, and a multi-stage, liquid-liquid extraction unit in series with the oxidation process unit. The multi-stage, liquid-liquid extraction unit spits a fuel input from the oxidation process unit into a desulfurized fuel that is output for use, and a by-product. A solvent/sulfur/hydrocarbon separation process unit receives the by-product from the multi-stage, liquid-liquid extraction unit.
