Oxyle eliminates >99% of short- and long-chain PFAS from contaminated groundwater for a Swiss chemical manufacturer

Both long-chain and highly resilient short-chain PFAS were identified in groundwater contamination at a Swiss chemical facility. To attain permissible PFAS concentration levels, the Swiss chemical manufacturer sought an innovative approach capable of eliminating all PFAS. This whitepaper delves into how they were able to successfully eliminate all PFAS to levels below detection limits (<1ppt), for exponentially lower OPEX and CAPEX costs than alternatives.

Dr. Silvan Staufert & Dr. Fajer Mushtaq

Growing up in Delhi, every time Fajer turned the faucet, she faced a familiar anxiety: Was it clean? Would there be enough? From a young age, she vowed to make water her life’s mission.

While pursuing a doctorate at ETH Zurich, Fajer met Silvan, another idealist who understood that when it comes to water treatment, innovations can’t come soon enough and he knew that his broad engineering skills would find a great use in this mission.

Together, they saw their chance to make a real impact by addressing one of humanity’s greatest challenges: Forever Chemicals.

Realizing the lack of effective solutions, they created a technology that could degrade and mineralize Forever Chemicals in minutes. They knew this innovation could change the world, but only if it graduated out of the lab and into the real world.

In 2020, Oxyle was born with a singular mission: to restore and protect our waters from Forever Chemicals, down to the very last drop.
