Advanced Environmental Services provides comprehensive PFAS soil treatment services to identify, remove, and remediate contamination in soil and sediment across Missouri and the Midwest. Our team of environmental professionals uses advanced testing, field expertise, and innovative remediation technologies to deliver safe, effective, and compliant PFAS treatment solutions.
PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are highly persistent synthetic compounds found in industrial and consumer products. Once introduced into the environment, PFAS can accumulate in soil and migrate to groundwater, threatening ecosystems and human health. AES provides targeted soil treatment methods that remove or neutralize PFAS compounds to protect your property, community, and compliance status.

Complete PFAS Soil Treatment Services
AES offers full-service soil remediation programs designed to meet the unique needs of industrial facilities, municipalities, landfills, and development sites. From initial site investigation to final restoration, we manage every step of the process.
Site Investigation and Soil Sampling
Every PFAS soil treatment project begins with a detailed site assessment. AES performs comprehensive soil sampling and laboratory testing to determine the type, concentration, and distribution of PFAS compounds. Using state-approved testing protocols, we identify contamination hot spots and assess the potential for groundwater migration.
In-Situ Soil Treatment
For sites where excavation is not feasible, AES offers in-situ treatment methods that target PFAS contamination directly within the soil. Common in-situ techniques include:
- Stabilization and Solidification: Binds PFAS compounds within the soil matrix to prevent leaching and migration.
- In-Situ Adsorption: Uses activated carbon or other reactive media to immobilize PFAS contaminants.
- Thermal Desorption (Low-Temperature Treatment): Applies controlled heat to volatilize and capture PFAS compounds while minimizing soil disturbance.
Ex-Situ Soil Treatment and Removal
When excavation is required, AES employs ex-situ treatment methods to safely remove and treat contaminated soil. Depending on contamination levels and project requirements, this may include:
- Soil Washing: Separates contaminated fines from clean soil particles for targeted treatment and reuse.
- Thermal Treatment: Destroys PFAS compounds through high-temperature processing in controlled facilities.
- Off-Site Disposal: For heavily contaminated soil, AES coordinates transportation and disposal at certified facilities following all EPA and state regulations.
By combining laboratory precision with field-tested methods, AES ensures every soil treatment project achieves measurable results.
Advanced Technology and Regulatory Compliance
AES integrates the latest scientific advancements and technologies into our PFAS soil treatment programs. We stay current with evolving EPA guidance, ASTM standards, and state-level regulations to ensure full compliance and reliable results. Our environmental scientists evaluate each site’s conditions to determine the most cost-effective and environmentally responsible treatment strategy.
Our PFAS soil treatment services are ideal for:
- Industrial and manufacturing sites
- Airports and military installations (AFFF contamination)
- Landfills and waste management facilities
- Construction and redevelopment projects
- Agricultural and municipal properties

Frequently Asked Questions About PFAS Soil Treatment
How does PFAS contamination occur in soil?
PFAS contamination often originates from industrial discharges, firefighting foams, waste disposal, or manufacturing runoff. Once released, PFAS bind to soil particles and may migrate downward into groundwater. Learn more about PFAS contamination.
Can PFAS be completely removed from soil?
While PFAS are resistant to natural degradation, AES uses proven technologies that can remove or immobilize PFAS to meet regulatory cleanup goals.
What is the difference between in-situ and ex-situ treatment?
In-situ treatment is performed directly within the contaminated area, while ex-situ treatment involves excavating and treating soil above ground or off-site.
How long does PFAS soil treatment take?
Treatment duration depends on the contamination level, area size, and selected methods. AES provides efficient project management to minimize disruption and ensure timely completion.
