The PFAS Problem and The Fluor-Mop Solution:

Per and polyfluoroalkyl substances, PFAS or “forever chemicals”, are a class of fluorinated organic compounds with a variety of useful physical and chemical properties including, oil and water resistance, thermal and chemical stability, and surfactant action. PFAS have been used extensively in a wide variety of applications, both at the industrial scale and the consumer scale, from firefighting foams and airplane parts to water-proof clothing and non-stick cookware. PFAS used in these products contaminate critical natural resources including soil and water. Due to their stability, PFAS, unlike many other organic pollutants, essentially do not degrade in the environment, accumulate in these natural resources. Various studies suggest toxicities in humans, such as increased cholesterol levels and even including increased risk for certain cancers and immune system suppression.

Currently existing methods to address this problem are non-specific, and as a result are not well suited to address problem compounds like PFAS in more demanding applications.

Weaver Labs has developed Fluor-Mop specifically to address the problem of PFAS present in water resources, using our proprietary technology for targeted removal of PFAS, leading to superior performance and longer service life.

Fluor-Mop is regenerable, reducing the need for waste and replacement, lowering life-cycle costs, and providing ease of operation. The technology powering Fluor-Mop is adaptive as well, with potential applications to detection and quantitation.
