    PFAS-Blaster project, funded by the Service Public Wallonie (SPW), saw an important milestone reached this week with the technical kick-off meeting at the IBA headquarters in Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium. This meeting has been a key moment to dive deeper into technical discussions and carefully organize the first phases of experimentation. This ambitious project aims to develop a treatment solution for materials contaminated by PFAS, also known as forever chemicals, by combining three innovative technologies: - High-energy electron beam irradiation - Bioremediation - Low-temperature thermal desorption 🤝 Partners provided detailed explanations of the technical functioning of their technologies and worked together to plan the execution of the initial experimental phases. The project brings together Idrabel Environmental Biotechnology, Haemers Technologies , Université de Liège, UNamur - Recherche, SPGE, SWDE, and is supported by GreenWin and MecaTech. Excited to move forward on this critical environmental challenge! 🌱 Stay tuned !
