Kurita America Inc. and Cyclopure are partnering to deliver an advanced and sustainable solution for removing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from water, using a completely regenerable material.

Cyclopure’s patented DEXSORB technology, combined with Kurita’s expertise in water treatment system design and fabrication, offers a reliable, cost-effective, and sustainable solution to meet PFAS water regulations.

PFAS, also known as “forever chemicals,” pose significant risks to public health and the environment. Current treatment methods, such as activated carbon and ion exchange, have limitations in capacity, spectrum of removal, sensitivity to co-contaminants, and lifecycle sustainability. DEXSORB delivers a four to ten times higher capacity, removes a broad spectrum of PFAS, and offers an eco-friendly regeneration and concentration process that allows for cost-effective destruction, ensuring cradle-to-grave treatment with no recontamination risks and liability reduction.

Kurita is leading the filtration equipment design and fabrication of a new collaborative PFAS regeneration facility in Michigan, which will serve as a cornerstone for delivering scalable and sustainable PFAS treatment. Cyclopure brings proven expertise in PFAS innovation, with its DEXSORB adsorbent commercially deployed in residential, municipal, military, and industrial applications. Together, Kurita’s engineering capabilities and Cyclopure’s advanced material science will accelerate the delivery of practical, effective solutions to urgent water remediation challenges.

The partnership marks an important step in advancing water safety and sustainability, offering communities and industries a permanent solution to a persistent environmental challenge.
