Demonstrating advanced treatment technology that sustainably removes and destroys PFAS.
We were delighted to welcome Emma Hardy, Minister for Water and Flooding, to our Puragen facility in Immingham, in the same week that the UK government formally announced its national strategy to address PFAS in the environment.
PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) present a growing regulatory challenge across the UK, and the visit highlighted how industry innovation can directly support the policy’s focus on improving monitoring, effective PFAS treatment, and responsible management of so-called “forever chemicals.”
Our team showcased Puragen’s strong R&D capabilities and advanced PFAS treatment technology, demonstrating how high-performance filtration solutions can deliver effective PFAS removal and destruction, establishing cleaner air, cleaner water, and purified biogas.

Sustainable PFAS Removal and Carbon Reactivation
In line with the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs’ (DEFRA) emphasis on reducing environmental impact while maintaining essential industrial activity, our approach delivers clear sustainability benefits, including a lower carbon footprint achieved through reactivated carbon and the safe reactivation of PFAS-spent carbon.

Supporting the UK’s National PFAS Strategy
We thank the Minister for taking the time to visit and engage with our team as we continue to develop innovative, practical PFAS filtration and treatment solutions that support the UK’s evolving PFAS strategy, environmental protection, and decarbonisation goals.
