Rapid response treatment for urgent contaminated water challenges

Contaminated water can create urgent treatment demands across emergency response, groundwater remediation, wastewater management and short- to medium-term treatment programs. Sites may involve per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, as well as other contaminants of concern. Conditions can shift quickly, flow rates can vary and space may be limited.

Onterris helps organizations respond with modular, transportable treatment systems designed for rapid deployment, flexible operation and defensible performance. The RR Series supports emergency response and planned treatment programs where contaminated water must be treated quickly, reliably and in alignment with site-specific goals.

Supporting Your Industry

Water challenges vary across sectors and geographies, and our experts help identify the right solutions for your specific needs
why it matters

Emergency response and temporary water treatment need speed, flexibility and control

  • Emergency spills, groundwater impacts, wastewater challenges and short-term treatment projects require fast system mobilization
  • Variable flow rates can affect treatment performance and operating continuity
  • Site constraints can limit the footprint available for water treatment equipment
  • Different contaminant profiles may require different media or pretreatment strategies
  • Treatment decisions influence waste volume, maintenance needs and total project cost
  • Reliable monitoring, system control and treatment flexibility help teams maintain performance and support defensible outcomes

Applying modular treatment to complex contaminated water challenges

The RR Series is designed for sites that need rapid treatment of contaminated water associated with emergency spills, groundwater, wastewater and other short- to medium-term treatment requirements. Systems are available as modular stand-alone units and can be customized with pretreatment when required.

Most RR Series models are built on forkliftable skids, supporting transport to project sites and repositioning within active work areas. Treatment vessels can operate individually, in series or in parallel, giving teams flexibility to manage flow, media strategy and treatment objectives.
