Thermal Remediation for Total PFAS Destruction in Contaminated Source Zones
PFAS source zones present a significant challenge for conventional remediation technologies, which often rely on containment or phase transfer rather than permanent destruction. To address this limitation, TerraTherm has developed and field-demonstrated a high-temperature thermal treatment approach designed to achieve destructive treatment of PFAS and associated fluorinated compounds in both the treated media and extracted vapor stream.
This webinar will summarize the results of an ESTCP-funded pilot-scale demonstration of our high temperature treatment technology for the remediation of PFAS-impacted soil and sediment. Presenters will explain the technology, what happens to PFAS in soil and sediment when heated to high temperatures, and how vapor treatment systems are designed to capture and treat all PFAS, including degradation products, and fluorine.
In addition, operational insights from the demonstration and key design considerations for full scale treatment will be presented, including in situ and ex situ applications, integration of vapor treatment systems, emissions management, and strategies for achieving and verifying emissions.
Key Learning Points
- Understand how high-temperature thermal treatment can achieve >99.9% destruction of PFAS in soil and sediment
- Learn how to use laboratory and field pilot test data to evaluate PFAS destruction, mineralization, and fluorine mass balance.
- Discover how integrated vapor treatment, catalyst media, and emissions monitoring help support safe, defensible implementation.
Why Attend
Attend this webinar to understand where thermal remediation fits within PFAS source-zone cleanup and what field pilot data indicate about its potential for permanent destruction. You will leave with a clearer view of the technology, design considerations, and key performance questions to ask before selecting a destructive remedy.

Thermal Treatment: A Reliable Option For Your Bedrock Source Zone
Treating fractured bedrock is complex, and effective remedial options are limited. Due to the fractured nature of rock, contamination can migrate deep, and pathways out of the bedrock system are limited.
One of the most effective and reliable methods of treating fractured bedrock is to use thermal technologies.
In this webinar, presenters Steffen Griepke, VP of Technology at TerraTherm and Niels Ploug, Product Manager at Krüger will discuss the treatment of bedrock source zones, including:
- The challenges of removing volatile organic compounds (VOC) from fractured rock
- The pros and cons of the most common thermal treatment technologies in bedrock settings
- Design considerations and field implementation challenges
The prerecorded presentation will be peppered with examples and results from the many thermal sites successfully treated by the combined TerraTherm and Krüger teams. Steffen and Niels will also share highlights from a recently completed project—the world’s deepest thermal remediation project of crystalline rock, treated to a total depth of 170 ft.
ISTR in Fractured Bedrock
Treating fractured bedrock is complex, and effective remedial options are limited. Due to the fractured nature of rock, contamination can migrate deep, and pathways out of the bedrock system are limited.
Using thermal technologies is one of the most effective and reliable methods of treating fractured bedrock.
In this flash webinar, presenters Steffen Griepke and John LaChance, (VPs of Technology and Development, respectively) discuss the treatment of bedrock source zones, including:
- The challenges of removing CVOCs and DNAPL from fractured rock
- The pros and cons of the most common thermal treatment technologies in bedrock settings
- Design considerations and field implementation challenges
This recorded webinar will include examples and results from bedrock sites successfully remediated using thermal. Steffen and John will also share highlights from a completed project—the world’s deepest thermal remediation project in crystalline rock, treated to a total depth of 170 ft.
If you are involved in the evaluation or remediation of any bedrock sites, this is a webinar you want to watch.
Thermal Remedy of Fractured Crystalline Rock
Investigating and remediating fractured rock can be a lot more complex than treating a porous media like sand or clay. This webinar will present information and data from projects where thermal remediation was successfully used to clean up sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous bedrock. The removal mechanisms as well as challenges for using thermal remediation technologies in fractured rock will also be reviewed, along with technology applicability and costs.
