About Revive Environmental:

Revive Environmental, a clean technology spin-out from Battelle Memorial Institute, is at the forefront of environmental technology, specializing in innovative solutions for the treatment of toxic per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) using supercritical water oxidation (SCWO) technologies. Revive's GAC RENEWâ„¢ product offering is a promising technology that combines the closed loop PFAS end state using SCWO with an in-situ renewal in place extraction process for PFAS-laden media.
