FAQ: Birchtech's Water Treatment Business Launch and Market Impact

Birchtech has launched its water treatment solutions business, which focuses on removing contaminants from America's water supply through filtration system media replacement services and specialized testing partnerships.

Water utilities need more effective and cheaper ways to remove harmful contaminants like PFAS ('forever chemicals'), and new EPA regulations require monitoring by 2027 and Maximum Contaminant Level limits by 2029, creating a $1.5 billion annual addressable market.

Birchtech has $0.9 million in purchase orders from a mid-Atlantic power utility for filtration services at two locations, and a partnership with Civil & Environmental Consultants Inc. to provide Rapid Small-Scale Column Testing (RSSCT) for their water utility customers nationwide.

Birchtech uses a media-agnostic approach that allows them to select the best products for each job rather than being limited to a single corporate-sponsored product line, enabling optimal performance at the lowest cost.

RSSCT is a specialized testing methodology that simulates full-scale filter bed conditions quickly, enabling utilities to make decisions on granular activated carbon performance and devise compliance strategies faster than traditional methods.

Birchtech will provide RSSCT testing at its Analytical Design Center in Grand Forks, ND, serving Civil & Environmental Consultants Inc.'s water utility customers through their 34 offices nationwide.

Birchtech states it can provide RSSCT testing at a speed and cost that is unmatched by rival RSSCT labs in the United States.

The article specifically mentions PFAS ('forever chemicals'), which are linked to health issues including low birth rates, increased cancer risks, and high blood pressure in pregnant women, and which new EPA regulations now require to be treated.

The Federal government has allocated $1 billion in federal funding for water monitoring systems to help address emerging contaminants like PFAS.

John Pavlish, Birchtech's Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer, is quoted saying their analysis of multiple options allows selection of the best water treatment solutions for optimal performance and lowest cost.
