When you need to detect PFAS and map out a contamination zone, timeliness and accuracy are keys to building an informed site characterization. Currently, detecting PFAS in environmental samples, such as groundwater, surface water, and leachate, requires sending samples to offsite laboratories for analysis – a process that is both costly and time-consuming, often taking weeks to produce results. This delay can lead to further contamination while waiting for actionable data. Our Salvus Detection Platform rapidly detects PFAS at the point-of-concern so you can more efficiently characterize and understand PFAS in source zones, make more timely decisions, and deploy effective remediation plans.

We're fortunate to work with so many amazing colleagues! Congrats to all! 🥳

Scott Witte PhD, is drawn to work that benefits society and the environment. It was fitting that he earned bachelor’s degrees in chemistry and environmental science and a doctorate in biochemistry. “My passion is to use science and technology to help mankind and the environment in creating a sustainable and better place to live. I want to use my skills as a problem solver to make the lives of others easier,” Scott said. Before joining Salvus, he nurtured his interests in helping the environment and humanity by working on projects that sought to optimize algal growth and extraction for renewable oil production, as well as projects that worked with DNA to identify mutations leading to cancers and to facilitate DNA repair processes. At Salvus, Scott leads projects focused on detecting per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), a group of chemicals known as “forever chemicals,” in water and other liquid and surface environments. “I am in charge of assay development and experimental design for our PFAS rapid detection sensor. I focus on the optimization of our novel sensing layer, as well as testing conditions both in the lab and the field. I also work on the development of additional sensing surfaces to detect different analytes,” Scott explained.

What an inspiring story! Congratulations to Andre Weltman Tatar and Mitchell Beeland Tatar, MBA! We look forward to your continued leadership at CJB.

Our parent company, CJB Companies, announced new leadership appointments, as well as promotions at CJB Industries, Inc. and CJB Applied Technologies. We’re excited about the new organizational structure as it focuses on enhancing the customer experience by capitalizing on technology, expanding our services to more markets, and developing our company’s future leaders.

Congratulations to our colleagues for reaching an anniversary milestone!

If you’re in Washington, DC, today, stop by the DoD Energy and Environment Innovation Symposium at the Washington Hilton. Scott Witte PhD is presenting Poster 155, “Rapid Field-Deployable PFAS Sensor: A Novel Polymer-based Technology,” in the Columbia Room on the Terrace Level from 12:30-7 p.m. He’ll share how our Salvus Detection Platform fulfills the need for rapid, onsite PFAS detection so you can comply with the latest Primary Drinking Water Regulations from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. #PFAS #AdvancedDetection #RapidDetection #DoDSymposium

We’re thrilled to be presenting at next week’s DoD Energy and Environment Innovation Symposium in Washington, DC. Be sure to visit Poster #155 on Dec. 3 to talk to Scott Witte PhD about how our Salvus Detection Platform rapidly detects PFAS at the point-of-concern so you can more efficiently characterize and understand PFAS in source zones, make more timely decisions, and deploy effective remediation plans. #PFAS #AdvancedDetection #RapidDetection #DoDSymposium

Do you work in an industry that needs to rapidly identify potential contaminants? Or needs to monitor and maintain the level of a specific substance? We’ll work with you to customize our Salvus Detection Platform to address your needs. We use interferometry to rapidly and accurately detect chemical and biological substances in liquid, air, and surface environments. Our technology can be adapted for use in multiple form factors, including a first-of-its-kind handheld device, unmanned vehicles (UAVs, UGVs), and monitoring systems, so you receive the results you need, where you need them, when you need them. Our Salvus Detection Platform puts you – not a distant, off-site lab – back in control to make timely decisions and deploy an action plan more quickly.

For Senior Scientist Scott Witte PhD, the allure of making a significant societal contribution drew him to Salvus, a member of CJB Companies. He finds great joy in translating his skills as a problem solver and his passion for science and technology into his work on our Salvus Detection Platform. But being a part of Salvus and CJB Companies is more than meaningful work; it’s being part of a family.
