PFAS contamination from firefighting foam (AFFF) at a fire training facility in Korsør, Denmark measured 36,000 ng/L (22-compound list) and 28,000 ng/L (4-compound list) in process water. Danish regulatory standards required reduction to below 100 ng/L and 2 ng/L respectively—among the most stringent PFAS cleanup standards globally.
BAM Ultra technology was applied to 500 liters of process water with complementary nutrient addition and continuous active aeration over an 18-week treatment period. BAM material was homogenized throughout the water column, and the aeration system maintained dissolved oxygen levels to support natural bioremediation activity.
A 99.99% reduction in PFAS concentrations was achieved within 4 weeks of BAM Ultra treatment applied to 500 liters of process water from the Korsør, Denmark fire training facility. All Danish regulatory standards were met—including the 100 ng/L threshold for the 22-compound list and the 2 ng/L threshold for the 4-compound list—with no contaminant rebound observed through 18 weeks of monitoring. Continued PFAS reduction was measured throughout the full monitoring period following the initial 4-week milestone. BAM Ultra was the only treatment method evaluated that reached the project’s regulatory goals, which represented some of the most stringent PFAS cleanup standards globally.
