Small, EarlyView.An electroconductive MXene‐TFC membrane integrates osmotic dewatering with anodic oxidation to concentrate and mineralize PFOA at the membrane interface. The coupled AO‐PRO configuration accelerates degradation kinetics, achieves 99% rejection and up to 93% TOC removal, and lowers specific energy demand, offering a compact route for PFAS destruction ...
