Onterris Receives Defense Innovation Unit Success Memo for PFAS Treatment Prototype

  • The Department of War issued a Success Memo allowing Onterris to directly leverage its PFAS treatment solutions without a new competitive bid process.
  • Onterris successfully completed a prototype project at the Former Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base Willow Grove in Horsham, PA.
  • The company's regenerable ion exchange resin technology treated 2.5 million gallons of PFAS-contaminated groundwater to meet USEPA drinking water maximum contaminant levels over an eight-month period.
  • Three regeneration cycles were performed, demonstrating that the system returns to initial treatment performance after each event.
  • The prototype was selected from 64 submissions following a competitive evaluation under the Environmental Security Technology Certification Program partnership with the Defense Innovation Unit.
  • The Success Memo validates the technology under an Other Transaction Agreement and establishes a streamlined acquisition pathway for federal agencies.
  • The technology effectively removes PFAS from liquid waste streams while creating a low-volume, high-concentration residual suitable for destruction.
  • The solution offers an efficient, scalable alternative to conventional methods that reduces lifecycle costs & waste generation.
  • Onterris positions itself to support future federal, state, & commercial PFAS remediation projects following this validation.
  • The effort was sponsored by the U.S. Government under Other Transaction Agreement number HQ00342390010.
