Rick Gillespie Discusses PFAS Strategies for Landfills in WasteAdvantage Magazine
Rick Gillespie, Chief Commercial Officer at Revive Environmental, was recently published in WasteAdvantage Magazine, contributing an editorial focused on PFAS strategies for landfills and transfer stations.
The article, “PFAS Strategies for Landfills: A Practical Framework for 2026 and Beyond,” explores how landfill operators can address the growing regulatory, operational, and liability challenges associated with per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in landfill leachate. As federal and state PFAS regulations continue to evolve, the piece provides a practical framework for evaluating PFAS treatment options and planning for long-term compliance.
Rather than promoting a single solution, the editorial outlines the broader landscape of PFAS treatment for landfills, including separation, removal, and destruction approaches. It highlights key considerations operators should weigh as discharge limits tighten, wastewater treatment plants impose stricter acceptance criteria, and long-term PFAS liability becomes a growing concern. The article also emphasizes the importance of documentation, validation, and liability management when developing a defensible landfill PFAS strategy.
As landfill PFAS management becomes an increasingly central issue for the solid waste industry, Revive Environmental continues to support operators through proven approaches to landfill leachate PFAS treatment, including front-end concentration and verified destruction services designed to reduce long-term risk.
