Arizona Tribune - BioLargo Signs Memorandum of Understanding with Aquatech to Accelerate Commercialization of PFAS Treatment Technology

BioLargo's AEC technology is designed to remove per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from liquid streams, producing treated water suitable for drinking water applications. AEC uses electromotive force to collect and immobilize PFAS directly onto membrane surfaces without generating a secondary concentrated liquid waste stream.

Under the agreement, BioLargo and Aquatech will collaborate to enable the deployment of the AEC technology as a concentration & collection step within Aquatech's full flowsheet solutions for PFAS treatment including destruction.

This collaboration enhances the two companies' ability to integrate AEC with Aquatech's comprehensive, end-to-end PFAS treatment solutions that enable their public and private sector clients to meet evolving regulatory requirements.

Aquatech is globally recognized for its technical excellence and innovation in sustainable water and wastewater management and was awarded Water Technology Company of the Year at the 2025 Global Water Summit in Paris, France. Aquatech's industry-leading technology portfolio includes membrane, thermal, biological, electrochemical and ultrapure water treatment solutions.

"By partnering with Aquatech - one of the most respected and capable organizations in the global water treatment industry - we can significantly amplify the reach and impact of our Aqueous Electrostatic Concentrator technology," said Tonya Chandler, President of BioLargo Equipment. "Together, we are combining proven engineering, innovative science, and deep market experience to deliver scalable PFAS treatment solutions for industrial, municipal, and government clients."

The agreement establishes a non-exclusive framework for collaboration on PFAS treatment projects worldwide, enabling both companies to combine their complementary technologies to better serve the rapidly growing PFAS remediation market.

"Coupling BioLargo's AEC PFAS collection and concentration technology with Aquatech's PFAS removal and destruction expertise presents a powerful opportunity to fast-track effective solutions to serve the customer," said Devesh Mittal, Vice President of Aquatech Environmental Services.

This MOU reinforces BioLargo's strategy of building strong partnerships with industry leaders to expand market access and accelerate adoption of its proprietary clean technologies, while establishing a foundation for future joint PFAS treatment initiatives.
