Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are man-made organic compounds ubiquitously present in the environment. Due to their persistency and bioaccumulative nature, and because of increasingly stringent regulations of PFAS, their removal from the environment is necessary. Our initial study identified all-silica zeolite β as an alternative adsorb...
The fluorochemical industry has shifted to the production of short chain homologues of perfluoalkyl acids (PFAAs) in recent years. Yet the effective removal of short-chain PFAAs from wastewater is still a major challenge. In this study, the removal efficiencies (RM) of short- and long-chain PFAAs emitted from two fluorochemical industrial parks wer...

Perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) have been widely detected and pose potential risks to both human and ecosystem health. Since the probation of perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) by the Stockholm Convention, perfluorooctanoate (PFOA) has frequently been used as a chemical intermediate and processing aid. Owing to a lack of effective treatment technologies...
