PFAS Treatment for Bethel Drinking Water

The Bethel Water Department (BWD) in Connecticut currently operates one groundwater source and two surface water sources to supply drinking water to their community. They are currently installing a new wellfield as an additional groundwater source, and to phase out the surface water sources. PFAS have been detected in both groundwater sources although PFAS concentrations at one of the groundwater sources exceeds proposed regulatory limits. The BWD is seeking to understand alternative treatment options and develop a conceptual design to remove PFAS from their drinking water.
