The type of PFAS remediation technology selected is often a reflection of the PFAS contamination levels and the PFAS signature (i.e. the combination of short and long chain PFAS substances present) in conjunction with the site specific water chemistry and cross contaminants present in the liquid stream.
7 December 2018 The Michigan PFAS Science Advisory Panel releases Scientific Evidence and Recommendations for Managing PFAS Contamination in Michigan, which outlines evidence-based recommendations for the state as well as recommendations for areas of future research or monitoring to address gaps in information. It includes a recommendation that ...
The researchers concluded that pollution may impact large areas. In 2024, a worldwide study of 45,000 ground water samples found that 31% of samples contained levels of PFAS that were harmful to human health; these samples were taken from areas not near any obvious source of contamination.
The new drinking water standard would limit contamination from six of the most toxic PFAS compounds by requiring water utilities to test for their presence and then take action to remove the ...
Health concerns: PFAS contamination in south Tucson challenges historic cleanup Your lettuce is safe, most likely PFAS in contaminated soil and irrigation water can end up in food.
Two years after the forever chemicals PFAS6 were discovered in private wells in Westminster, here's where the remediation stands.
Perfluorohexanesulfonic acid ( PFHxS) ( conjugate base perfluorohexanesulfonate) is a synthetic chemical compound. It is one of many compounds collectively known as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs). It is an anionic fluorosurfactant and a persistent organic pollutant with bioaccumulative properties.
The movie “Dark Waters,” based on the work of Cincinnati lawyer Rob Bilott, tells how PFAS contamination in the water became linked to cancer and other health problems over several decades ...
