A Never-Ending Story of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFASs)?

open access: yes, 2017
More than 3000 per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are, or have been, on the global market, yet most research and regulation continues to focus on a limited selection of rather well-known long-chain FASs, particularly perfluorooctanesulfonate ...

Complete defluorination of PFASs via photocatalytic reduction in water

open access: yesNature Communications
The environmental persistence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), driven by the exceptional stability of their C-F bonds, presents a formidable challenge for remediation. Herein, we report the 5,10,15,20-tetraphenyl (4-aminophenyl) porphyrin (TAPP) aggregates as visible-light-driven photocatalysts capable of achieving almost-100 ...
