Sustainability Assessment of Alternative Methods for Destruction of Per‐ and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) in Water

Remediation Journal, Volume 36, Issue 2, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent environmental contaminants widely recognized for their resistance to degradation and potential adverse health effects. The treatment of PFAS‐contaminated aqueous media (e.g., drinking water, wastewater, and leachate) has been extensively studied in the published literature; however, the

Recycling of paper, cardboard and its PFAS in Norway

Journal of Hazardous Materials Letters
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have been used in paper products since the 1960s. PFAS emissions during the life cycle of these products have been substantial sources of these substances to the environment.

PFAS Vadose Zone Mass Discharge at an AFFF‐Impacted Site: 1. Validation Based on a Multiple Lines‐of‐Evidence Approach

Remediation Journal, Volume 36, Issue 2, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT Questions have recently been raised about the suitability of using porewater samples collected with suction lysimeters to estimate per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) mass discharge in the vadose zone. Multiple lines of evidence were evaluated to determine if porewater samples collected during a data gaps investigation in the former ...

Individual and mixtures of PFAS during pregnancy are associated with maternal cardiometabolic outcomes during pregnancy

Environmental Health
Introduction Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are endocrine-disrupting chemicals and widespread environmental contaminants. PFAS cross the placental barrier and reach the developing fetus with potential impacts on many organ systems.

Hybrid graphenic and iron oxide photocatalysts for the decomposition of synthetic chemicals

Communications Engineering
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of synthetic chemicals that resist degradation, posing a significant environmental and health risk. Current methods for removing PFAS from water are often complex and costly. Here we report a simple,
