Iron Creek’s technology is superior to traditional soil remediation technology for a number of reasons. It’s emergency ready, space efficient and scalable. There’s no waste, meaning one hundred percent of soil and sludge contamination is treated, keeping pollutants out of landfills. The technology treats all organic contaminants, including PFAS, hydrocarbons, explosives and more.
There are thousands of different kinds of PFAS. Overall, qualities like moisture-repellence and flame retardant which made them so appealing for commercial use are the same qualities that make them break down slowly and accumulate in the environment. Today, you can find at least small concentrations of PFAS in nearly any place you can imagine– water, air, soil, people, animals, food.
PFASs are oil and water repellent, fire suppressant, non-stick and stain resistant. Consequently, PFAS chemicals are found in everything from clothing and household items to agriculture, food and food packaging and drinking water. PFASs are even found in breastmilk and 98% of human bloodstreams.
Admittedly, the health risks of PFAS exposure were underreported even though manufacturers conducted studies that found these substances caused thyroid, liver, kidney and spleen problems, immune deficiencies, fertility issues, cancers and more.
Iron Creek Group offers environmental teams next-level remediation technology designed to comply with the most stringent environmental standards around the globe. From oil spills to PFAS contamination, the patented designs of Iron Creek’s emergency ready technologies have minimal emissions and small carbon footprints. They are nimble, scalable and ready to solve complex environmental issues at a moment’s notice— even in some of the world’s most remote and challenging environments.
Our Zero Oxygen Conduction Technology, also known as Tech Zero, is a sustainable, affordable, and safe solution when it comes to eliminating PFAS. The patented technology is proven to eliminate 99% of PFAS contaminants and can be mobilized for on-site, same-day operation.
