BioLargo has announced its participation in a consortium led by the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) focused on addressing PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) contamination. This initiative aims to develop innovative technologies and solutions to tackle the environmental and health challenges posed by PFAS. In addition to its involvement in the consortium, BioLargo’s President, Tonya Chandler, has been appointed to the board of directors for this collaborative effort.
The consortium includes various stakeholders from academia, industry, and government, all working together to find effective methods for monitoring, remediating, and preventing PFAS pollution. BioLargo’s expertise in advanced water treatment and environmental solutions is expected to contribute significantly to the consortium’s objectives.
This partnership reflects BioLargo’s commitment to addressing critical environmental issues and enhancing public health through innovative technologies. The consortium’s work is particularly timely, given the increasing regulatory scrutiny and public concern surrounding PFAS contamination.
