Time to dive into the plant nerd stuff.. When people hear “industrial hemp phytoremediation”, they imagine one plant. Reality: not all hemp pulls the same. Different industrial hemp varietals have different: 🌱 biomass output 🌿 root architecture ⏱️ growth speed 📍 resilience across soils and seasons And in PFAS/PFOS programs, those differences can decide whether a remediation […]
Let’s talk about the number everyone asks for. 69%. In Europe, our partners saw up to ~69% PFAS/PFOS reduction in a single crop cycle, supported by SGS testing. Read that again: Not “someday.” Not “in a lab.” In a crop cycle. If we can achieve similar outcomes in Australia + NZ conditions, it could change everything […]
Let’s address the obvious: “Industrial hemp… for PFAS?” Yes. And not for the reason people think. Hemp isn’t the story. Biomass is. 🌱 Industrial hemp can produce large volumes of plant material fast, with strong root systems and robust growth across varied conditions. Now pair that with what we’re developing: 🧬 a bioengineered organic enzyme designed to enhance the remediation […]
Most people talk about PFAS as a water problem. But for landholders, it’s also a balance sheet problem. Because once a site is flagged… ⚠️ projects stall ⚠️ approvals get harder ⚠️ development timelines blow out ⚠️ “valuable land” becomes “complicated land” Here’s what we’re doing at HFA (quietly, on purpose): 🌱 We’re commercialising a new PFAS phytoremediation approach that pairs: […]
Hopefully this doesn’t sound too boring.. But it matters WAY more than you think. Australia and New Zealand are already living with PFAS — the so‑called “forever chemicals” — whether we realise it or not. Just look at the map I’m sharing.. At this national view, it shows 1,924 mapped PFAS contamination locations across Australia (tens of […]
