Perchlorates (ClO4-) are man-made chemicals used in munitions and rocket propellants. They are highly soluble in water so they can be widely found in groundwater due to their high mobility. Once dispersed ClO4- can remain in the environment for decades as it does not readily degrade. The use of the DOWEX™ PSR-2 to bind and remove ClO4- at the ppb levels as a non-regenerated media is proving to be an effective remediation strategy.
