Burlington, Mass., May. 27, 2025— Haley & Aldrich experts will discuss remediation strategies for microplastics, PFAS, and other chemicals at Battelle’s 2025 International Symposium on Bioremediation and Environmental Biotechnology, scheduled for June 23-26 in Boston.
John Xiong will present on Haley & Aldrich’s cutting-edge PFAS, or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, destruction technology, EradiFluor, which has proven successful in lab and field testing and has a lower energy footprint than many other available solutions. Other staff members will discuss remediation approaches and technologies for a range of chemicals, drawing on insights from research and field experience.
Haley & Aldrich staff appearances are listed below; co-authors’ names are in parentheses.
