Synergy was contracted to treat PFAS impacted surface and groundwater generated from construction activities on the Moorebank Precinct East Project in Sydney’s Southwest.

The Moorebank Precinct Intermodal Works is underway to construct one of the most important freight infrastructure projects being developed in Australia.

The precinct will be made up of a rail yard, trucking and warehouses which will allow shipping containers to be transferred between rail and road. Previous assessment of the site identified historical Per and Poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) contamination within the surface water storage basins. Synergy were contracted to assist construction activities by treating the contaminated water within the storage basins to allow for capacity for rainfall events. The water treatment plant (WTP) consists of natural settlement tanks and filters where two different types of granular activated carbon (GAC) are used.
