Montrose Environmental Group Protects Local Communities by Removing Forever Chemicals from Landfills and Local Sites

Innovative PFAS treatment solutions support health and safety of residents

LAS VEGAS, May 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Waste Expo, Las Vegas – Montrose Environmental Group (NYSE: MEG) is on a mission to help protect the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the soil that feeds us. The company's innovative PFAS treatment solutions have been deployed at Smith Creek Landfill in St. Clair County, Michigan and West Deptford Township, New Jersey. A leader in environmental solutions, Montrose is exhibiting at Waste Expo 2025 (Booth 3556) with three experts speaking on panels to discuss the challenges landfills face with addressing emerging contaminants.

PFAS, commonly known as "forever chemicals," are a growing concern in landfills across the country. These persistent pollutants accumulate in landfill leachate, creating a major challenge for waste management facilities that must meet stringent environmental regulations. Traditional treatment methods often fail to effectively remove PFAS, leading to contamination risks in nearby water sources. Montrose is at the forefront of addressing this issue, offering proven, field-tested PFAS treatment solutions that help landfills manage their leachate safely and effectively while ensuring compliance with evolving regulations.

"Partnering with Montrose has been very positive for us," said Matt Williams, Director at Smith Creek Landfill. "Since implementing Montrose's FOAMX PFAS treatment solution, we're significantly reducing the presence of PFAS in our landfill leachate. We're meeting permit requirements, but more importantly, we're protecting our local waterways. Montrose's expertise and exceptional delivery have transformed the way we operate and set us up for a healthier, more sustainable future."

"At Montrose, our innovative, science-backed solutions to PFAS contamination are driving positive change in protecting the health and safety of communities worldwide," said Andy Bishop, Executive Vice President, Montrose Environmental Group. "By continuously pushing the boundaries of R&D, we're delivering cutting-edge technologies that provide effective, scalable solutions to PFAS testing and treatment. Our comprehensive approach empowers landfill operators and municipalities to tackle this persistent environmental issue and protect the people and places we hold dear."
