Webinar - PFAS Site Characterization

Overview

PFAS investigations involve comparing concentrations for multiple PFAS constituents at each monitoring well, and between wells along a groundwater flow path.  This webinar presents several case studies which demonstrate the benefit of using Visual PFAS™ radial diagram and stacked bar maps to enhance site characterization and improve conceptual models, including:

  • Visualizing where and by how much PFAS exceed cleanup criteria across a site

  • Review of precursor transformation pathways which may increase concentrations of more toxic PFAS

  • Example uses of PFAS ratios to clearly visualize where precursor transformations are occurring along a flow path

  • Demonstrating where PFAS attenuation is occurring downgradient of source areas

  • Comparing site concentrations to background levels to evaluate the potential for impacts to soil and groundwater

A wide range of approaches for using Visual PFASTM to characterize sites are illustrated in a hands-on demonstration with an example site.

Benefits of Attending

Learn about how you can employ Visual PFASTM to improve site characterization and enhance the communication of your results to project stakeholders.

Who Should Attend

Environmental consultants, regulators, site managers, military personnel, and academics.
