Kurita America, a global leader in water treatment solutions, and Cyclopure, an innovator in advanced adsorbent technologies, today announced their expanding partnership to deliver the most advanced and sustainable solution for removing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from water with a completely regenerable material.

With Cyclopure’s patented DEXSORB technology and Kurita’s expertise in water treatment system design and fabrication, they offer a reliable, cost-effective, and sustainable solution to meet strict new PFAS regulations.

PFAS, 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 4–10x 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 accelerate the delivery of practical, effective solutions to urgent water remediation challenges.

"We see exciting opportunities in aligning Kurita’s global water treatment expertise with Cyclopure’s breakthrough DEXSORB technology,” said Todd Emslander, CEO of Kurita America. “This expanding partnership furthers Kurita’s commitment to creating shared value in our society through sustainable innovation.

“We are excited to work with the Kurita Global team,” said Frank Cassou, CEO of Cyclopure. “They have deep experience in water treatment services, powered by a culture of innovation. Together we can scale the rapid deployment of DEXSORB to assist water treatment managers across the U.S. and around the world.”
