Xchange USA 2027
What Will It Take to Move from PFAS Detection to Defensible, Scalable Remediation?
Join water utilities, industrial site owners, airports, wastewater and waste operators, regulators, remediation specialists, technology providers and laboratories to examine the strategies, technologies and operating models required to manage PFAS contamination across the full remediation lifecycle.
Big Question Facing the PFAS Remediation Market:
What Will Determine Which PFAS Remediation Strategies Deliver Durable Risk Reduction with Sustainable Lifecycle Economics?
PFAS contamination is no longer a single-medium treatment challenge. Organizations must make decisions across source identification, site characterization, exposure pathways, treatment selection, residuals management, destruction or disposal, regulatory requirements and long-term stewardship.
PFAS Remediation Xchange USA 2027 will examine how remediation programs can progress from investigation and interim controls through remedy selection, treatment deployment, residuals management, performance optimization and sustained site management.
The conference will help participants evaluate regulatory uncertainty, analytical and monitoring strategies, source attribution, groundwater and soil remediation, treatment performance, waste-stream management, destruction pathways, funding and cost recovery, lifecycle economics and portfolio-level program delivery.
Five Themes Defining the Next Phase of PFAS Remediation
The agenda is structured around the regulatory, characterization, treatment, residuals and program-delivery decisions that will determine how PFAS remediation progresses from contamination assessment to durable long-term risk reduction.
Regulatory Compliance, Liability & Remediation Thresholds
Navigate evolving PFAS requirements across North America while translating regulatory uncertainty into defensible remediation decisions. Examine federal, state and provincial drinking-water limits, objectives and guidance, cleanup criteria, discharge requirements, reporting obligations and liability considerations while assessing how changing thresholds influence monitoring, interim response, treatment investment and long-term risk.
Site Characterization, Source Attribution & Remedial Strategy
Build a clearer understanding of PFAS sources, distribution and movement before committing to remediation infrastructure. Explore targeted analysis, precursor assessment, forensic techniques, plume behavior, mass-flux concepts, monitoring networks and data analytics to strengthen source attribution, remedial objectives and long-term site management.
Treatment Selection, Performance & Integrated Systems
Compare GAC, ion exchange, membrane systems, foam fractionation and other separation technologies across drinking water, groundwater, wastewater and leachate applications. Examine short-chain PFAS removal, co-contaminant interference, pretreatment, media life, breakthrough behavior, energy requirements and lifecycle cost while designing integrated treatment trains that reduce residual volumes and improve overall system performance.
Residuals, Destruction & Waste Management
Address what happens after PFAS has been removed from water, soil or process streams. Evaluate management pathways for spent media, membrane concentrate, brines, contaminated soils, biosolids, leachate and investigation-derived waste while assessing landfilling, underground injection, thermal treatment, reactivation and emerging destruction technologies against performance, validation, emissions and cost requirements.
Program Delivery, Economics & Long-Term Stewardship
Move from individual treatment projects toward coordinated, financially sustainable remediation programs. Explore site prioritization, CAPEX and OPEX planning, funding and cost recovery, procurement, source control, monitoring, system optimization and liability allocation while transitioning from interim controls to durable long-term remedies.
The PFAS Remediation Ecosystem
PFAS Remediation Xchange USA 2027 is designed for professionals across North America responsible for investigating, regulating, financing, engineering, implementing and operating PFAS remediation programs across water, industrial facilities, contaminated sites and waste-management systems.
Connect with executives and senior leaders responsible for environmental compliance, water quality, remediation, engineering, capital projects, operations, waste management, sustainability and technology deployment.
Meet utilities, industrial site owners, airports, waste and wastewater operators, engineering firms, laboratories, treatment providers, regulators and technology developers addressing PFAS contamination.
Core Attendee Profiles
Public Water Utilities & Municipal Authorities
Organizations responsible for drinking-water compliance, source-water protection, treatment upgrades, groundwater management and long-term PFAS monitoring across public water systems.
Industrial Site Owners & Manufacturers
Environmental, engineering and EHS leaders managing PFAS use, historical releases, contaminated facilities, industrial discharges, remediation obligations and portfolio-level environmental liabilities.
Airports, Defense & AFFF-Affected Sites
Organizations addressing legacy AFFF use, source areas, groundwater impacts, foam transition, investigation programs and remediation requirements across operationally complex sites.
Wastewater, Waste & Biosolids Operators
Municipal wastewater utilities, landfill operators, waste companies and biosolids managers evaluating PFAS inflows, source control, leachate treatment, residuals management and disposal pathways.
Remediation, Engineering & Laboratory Leaders
Consultants, EPC firms, hydrogeologists, analytical laboratories and environmental specialists responsible for characterization, remedy design, implementation, monitoring and performance verification.
Technology, Regulatory & Research Stakeholders
Treatment and destruction providers, regulators, legal specialists, researchers and capital partners evaluating remediation performance, compliance exposure and commercial deployment.
Trusted by Industry Leaders
Join senior representatives from public agencies, utilities, industrial operators, remediation firms, waste companies, laboratories and technology providers responsible for PFAS investigation, treatment and long-term management.
Your Competitive Edge in the PFAS Remediation Market
Successful PFAS remediation will depend on more than achieving treatment removal targets. Organizations must understand the contamination sufficiently, select remedies suited to site conditions, manage concentrated PFAS waste streams and maintain performance over operating periods that may extend for decades.
Regulatory & Liability Readiness
Understand how federal, state and provincial requirements can influence remediation thresholds, implementation timing, capital planning and long-term environmental liability.
Characterization & Remedy Selection
Evaluate how source attribution, plume behavior, precursor analysis, monitoring strategies, data analytics and mass flux can improve site prioritization and remedy design.
Treatment & Lifecycle Performance
Compare treatment technologies against water chemistry, PFAS composition, system reliability, residual generation, energy demand and total lifecycle operating cost.
Residuals & Destruction Strategy
Determine how separation, concentration, transportation, destruction and disposal decisions influence the true environmental and financial performance of remediation systems.
Program Scale & Long-Term Control
Build stronger portfolio strategies around funding, cost recovery, procurement, source control, monitoring, optimization, contractor accountability and long-term site stewardship.
Actionable Intelligence, Not Just Insights
Every session is designed to help participants pressure-test remediation assumptions, compare available approaches and make stronger decisions across characterization, treatment, residuals management and long-term program delivery.
Which characterization, treatment and residual-management strategies are best suited to specific PFAS sources, matrices and exposure pathways.
Sites, source areas and remediation investments according to regulatory exposure, mass discharge, receptor risk and lifecycle economics.
Treatment performance, operating assumptions, waste-management approaches and program-delivery strategies against real-world PFAS remediation experience.
Technical and commercial uncertainty by understanding the interfaces between characterization, treatment, residuals management and long-term operating requirements.
Your organization for emerging opportunities across PFAS treatment infrastructure, destruction technologies, source control and long-term remediation services.
