About this event
PFAS contamination is one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time, and solving it requires both cutting-edge technology and ecological wisdom.
In this webinar, WSP experts Dr. Valérie Léveillé and Leonard Mankowski will present a powerful dual approach to PFAS remediation: PFASER, an electro-oxidation system that destroys PFAS and perchlorate in minutes, and nature-based solutions that restore groundwater health while building community trust.
Join the webinar to learn:
- How PFASER achieves non-detect levels of PFAS without toxic byproducts
- How nature-based techniques complement engineered systems
- Why WSP is positioned to help clients navigate complex contamination challenges.
Whether facing regulatory pressure, legacy contamination, or planning future-proof infrastructure, this session will equip you with the insights and confidence to act.

Valérie Léveillé Senior Water and Wastewater Treatment Engineer @ WSP in CanadaG
Dr Leveille has been developing and put to market novel electrochemical water treatment technologies since more than 18 years as well as designing numerous groundwater, potable water and wastewater systems using conventional technologies. She earned a Bachelor (2000), a Master (2022) and a PhD in Chemical Engineering (2006) She co-authored several patents and peer-review scientific papers and one book chapter as well as presenting to numerous international conferences. She focusses now on PFAS destruction in groundwater, industrial water and highly PFAS-impacted liquids using a commercial electro-oxidation reactor that do not produce perchlorate alone or combined with other technologies.
