Per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS): an emerging contaminant

(Corresponding) Toskos T., Panagiotakis I., Dermatas D.
Topic: 
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
PFAS compounds are ubiquitous in the environment and in consumer products. Unlike other emergent contaminants this is a family of compounds with, literally, thousands of compounds. Our knowledge of toxicological and environmental fate and transport properties is an evolving field. On the other hand...Read more

Column experiments to investigate the fate of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in the subsurface during soil stabilization with colloidal activated carbon

(Corresponding) Niarchos G., B. Kleja D., Ahrens L., Fagerlund F.
Topic: 
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
Remediation of sites contaminated with per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) is key to reduce the contamination of drinking water sources and subsequent human exposure. PFAS production and use is increasingly being restricted worldwide, however, legacy contamination plumes in soil and...Read more

PFAS removal performance of novel technologies for treatment of firefighting water and groundwater

(Corresponding) Hjort M., Dalmijn J., Roest K., ter Laak T., Vaiopoulou E.
Topic: 
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of widely used man-made organic chemical substances. PFAS have been used because of their particular physicochemical properties: most are stable at high temperatures, recalcitrant to chemical oxidation and biological degradation, and act as a...Read more
