Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances: From Disposition on Consumer Products and Field Materials to Treatment of Contaminated Groundwater

Creator:: Robel, Alix E.
Abstract:: Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are an emerging chemical class of concern. Recently in the United States, Health Advisory Limits for two PFAS in drinking water were established for perfluorooctane sulfonate and perfluorooctanoate in drinking water (set to 70 ng/L combine concentration) by the EPA. Because of PFAS mobility, persistence,...
