Removing Per- and Polyfluorinated (PFAS) from the Environment
An effective, green, scalable, and sustainable approach for removing chemical contaminants from drinking water and groundwater.
Background:
Poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent manmade chemicals that have been widely used since the 1950s. Across the United States, hundreds of sites have been contaminated by these anthropogenic...
