EBJ Remediation & PFAS Business & Market Review 2019
In this 53-page special edition of Environmental Business Journal, EBJ presents a strategic overview of the U.S. remediation industry and perspective on what promises to be the dawn of the PFAS Era. Results of two surveys conducted for this review are presented with a focus on market trends, technology application trends and executive perspectives on keys issues related to PFAS policy, science and future markets. Detailed discussion of the influential PFAS Experts Symposium in May 2019 is also provided by one of the lead conveners.
The PDF file of Environmental Business Journal and the accompanying data set in spreadsheet format provides EBJ’s analysis on the $8-billion U.S. remediation services market, as well as data on the broader $14-billion Remediation/Industrial Services segment of the $394-billion U.S. environmental industry.
Feature articles include Q&As with experts in risk management, innovation, R&D, policy history & developments, testing, site characterization and emerging competitive factors in PFAS project management from site assessment to closure.
