Effect of chain length on the pyrolysis of perfluorocarboxylic acids

(Corresponding) Dixon L., Stockenhuber S., Weber N., Lucas J., Grimison C., Stockenhuber M., Mackie J., (Corresponding) Kennedy E.

Topic:

Emerging pollutants

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) are increasingly becoming the contamination issue of our time, due to their environmental persistence, bioaccumulation and mounting evidence of their toxicity. Herein we examined the pyrolytic decomposition of a series of perfluorocarboxylic acids via the...Read more

Removal of PFAS from wastewater by bio-waste adsorbent: material characterization and adsorption kinetic study

(Corresponding) Bavasso I., Bracciale M., Sbardella F., Di Palma L., Marco S.

Topic:

Emerging pollutants

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are considered emerging contaminants and have been increased their attention due to their distribution in water body. These compounds are acid and characterized by a thermal stability to make them resistant to degradation processes. Activities such as...Read more
