TOXICITY AND TOXICOKINETICS OF PERFLUOROOCTANOIC ACID IN HUMANS AND ANIMALS

The Journal of Toxicological Sciences, 2003
Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is an octanoic acid derivative to which all aliphatic hydrocarbons are substituted by fluorine. PFOA and its salts are commercially used in various industrial processes. The chemical is persistent in the environment and does not undergo biotransformation.

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

Biodegradation of fluorinated octanoic acids in an O2-based membrane biofilm reactor

Water Research X
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent environmental contaminants due to their widespread use and recalcitrance to degradation. Aerobic bioreactors provide a possible path for further defluorination and mineralization of reductively ...

Efficient Concentration and Complete Destruction of Short‐Chain and Emerging PFAS in Contaminated Water via Integrated Interface Engineering‐Enhanced Carbon Felt Sorption and Photochemical Processes

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 51, 14 September 2026.
A closed‐loop “Concentrate‐Destroy” strategy is presented for completely eliminating short‐chain and emerging PFAS, in which the new 3D PPy@P‐CF is used for efficiently concentrating PFAS and Cu2+‐mediated photodegradation is applied for the completely destroying PFAS in the sorbent regeneration eluent.
