LANXESS Lewatit MDS TP 108 Removes Short-Chain PFAS from Water

Specialty chemicals company LANXESS is introducing Lewatit MDS TP 108, a new ion exchange resin for removing short-chain fluorinated components (PFAS) from water. These PFAS, with three or fewer carbon atoms, are the smallest members of this substance class and are often the most difficult to remove during water treatment. The new product also enables users to save a considerable amount of material and disposal costs, because it lasts about twice as long as conventional ion exchange resins or alternative technologies such as activated carbon adsorption.

“With Lewatit MDS TP 108, we are setting new standards in water treatment and ideally complement our product portfolio for the removal of PFAS. At the same time, we help to protect water as a valuable resource,” says Dr Dirk Steinhilber, Application Technology Manager in the LANXESS Liquid Purification Technologies business unit.

LANXESS is a leading specialty chemicals company with sales of EUR 6.7 billion in 2023. The company currently has about 12,600 employees in 32 countries. The core business of LANXESS is the development, manufacturing and marketing of chemical intermediates, additives and consumer protection products. LANXESS is listed in the leading sustainability indices of the Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI World and Europe).
