PFAS and Fire-Suppression Services

PFAS and AFFF Services from Material Removal Through System Transition

United Environmental Solutions handles PFAS and AFFF projects involving foam concentrate, rinsate, flush water, solids, PPE, tanks, apparatus, sampling, transportation, disposal, cleaning, decommissioning, demolition, and fire-suppression transitions.

One UES team keeps the material, system, facility, schedule, service requirements, and final records connected across the approved project.

A Simpler Project Path

Five Clear Steps From Waste Identification to Project Closeout

Most projects follow this sequence. The exact requirements depend on the material, location, and approved scope.

  1. 01Identify the Waste Stream

    Review material details, SDS files, process knowledge, and existing analysis. Identify any missing information.

  2. 02Quote and Agreement

    Confirm the service scope, responsibilities, pricing, and project requirements in a proposal.

  3. 03Documentation and Setup

    Prepare applicable profiles, labels, shipping documents, and other project requirements.

  4. 04Scheduling and Transportation

    Arrange the approved service and material movement around site access and the project window.

  5. 05Project Closeout

    Provide the shipping, receiving, disposition, or service records defined in the agreed scope.

01

AFFF Projects Extend Beyond the Foam Concentrate

The inventory may include concentrate, mixed solution, rinsate, flush water, tank residue, filters, absorbents, PPE, piping contents, removed equipment, solids, and construction debris. The system configuration and planned next use affect how those streams are collected and managed.

UES defines the waste and environmental work around the actual project stage.

02

Disposal, Tank Work, Testing, and Documentation

  • PFAS and AFFF Disposal for concentrate, liquids, solids, PPE, and project residuals
  • PFAS Tank Cleaning and Drainage for tanks, piping, apparatus, vehicles, rinsate, and residual management
  • PFAS Testing and Documentation for project-specific sampling questions, laboratory work, chain of custody, and usable records
  • Transportation, packaging, temporary storage, and project closeout requirements within the approved scope
03

Connect Removal and Cleaning to the Planned System Outcome

Fire-Suppression System Transition can include approved environmental work related to decommissioning, demolition, cleaning, fluorine-free foam conversion, water-based conversion, rebuilding, testing, and recommissioning.

System design, engineering, impairment, authority approval, insurance requirements, testing, and return-to-service decisions must be addressed by the appropriate project parties. Website copy does not authorize changes to an active life-safety system.

Material, System, and Documentation Decisions Are Connected

PFAS and AFFF work can involve concentrate, rinsate, solids, tanks, piping, sampling, cleaning, system transition, transportation, destinations, and final records. Each workstream is reviewed within the larger project.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does UES Guarantee Complete PFAS Removal?

No. Cleaning objectives, sampling design, analytical limits, system configuration, residual conditions, and acceptance criteria must be defined for the specific project.

Is Every PFAS Material Hazardous Waste?

No blanket classification is made on this website. The actual material, jurisdiction, generator, constituents, and project requirements determine the applicable path.

Can UES Support a Bid-Stage Project?

Yes. Send the specifications, drawings, estimated volumes, location, schedule, required workstreams, and documentation expectations.
