Photon Water is now the first company in Czechia to offer technology that can effectively remove PFAS from water

The health impacts of PFAS substances are a global problem today that affects us all. It is almost impossible to completely avoid these "forever chemicals." One of the main causes of their presence in the environment is industrial production and operations. Therefore, the solution to this worsening problem must focus precisely there, on the treatment and recycling of industrial water and waste.

Check out FocusOn's interview with Peter Putz, Head of the Water Treatment and Recycling Department, on the topic of PFAS in the Czech Republic.

You will learn:

• Where are PFAS substances most commonly found, how much of them is there, and what is their danger to the human body?
• Why are PFAS called "forever chemicals"?
• What is the quality of water in Czechia like?
• Why is water treatment and recycling technology beneficial to companies not only from an environmental but also from an economic point of view?
• About the first-ever industrial application project for PFAS elimination in the Czech Republic

"Many companies are not even aware that they are discharging PFAS substances. When they find out that water can not only be purified but also recycled, they start to look at it differently."

"If a company discharges 100 cubic meters of water a day and builds technology that can return this water, the investment will pay for itself within five years. And at the same time, it will stop polluting its surroundings."
