Woodbury, Minnesota, has selected AqueoUS Vets, a leading PFAS treatment solutions provider, to construct a new water treatment plant. This cutting-edge facility will address PFAS contamination in the city’s groundwater wells, ensuring a reliable and long-term solution for safe drinking water.
The project encompasses the installation of 17 miles of underground pipeline, connecting Woodbury’s 20 wells to the centralized treatment plant, which is expected to be fully operational by 2028. Currently, nine of the city’s wells are being treated at a temporary facility, with three additional interim treatment sites at various well locations.
“We are honored to be chosen for Woodbury’s new permanent water treatment plant project,” said Dr. Mirka Wilderer, President & CEO of AqueoUS Vets. “This contract reflects our commitment to providing tailored, high-performance treatment systems that address critical water quality challenges and reduce the total cost of ownership for the City. We look forward to supporting the community with our reliable solutions, ensuring safe, clean water for generations to come.”
As part of the contract, AqueoUS Vets will fabricate and deliver 21 custom PFAS treatment systems, each comprising two 12-foot diameter vessels with 14-foot side shell heights, piping manifolds, media slurry piping valves, and associated equipment. The company will oversee the freight, installation supervision, commissioning support, and operator training, following its industry-preferred concept-to-commission approach.
“We are pleased to have AV as a partner on this critical project,” said Jim Westerman, Woodbury’s assistant public works director and project lead. “This work will better the lives of our residents and visitors by delivering high-quality drinking water for generations to come.”
