These chemical bonds are incredibly difficult to break down, which means that contaminants from these chemicals build up over time in our environment. As well as in our bodies, they've been found in the soil and in drinking water. “永久化学品”之所以得名,是因为它们含有氟碳键,并且因为它们...
Scientists have developed an electrochemical method using metallocene polymers, particularly cobaltocene, to efficiently remove and release PFAS from water. Unlike conventional filters, this system is reusable, providing a sustainable solution for PFAS remediation. PFAS are incredibly versatile chemicals. Thes...
Per- and poly-fluoroalkyl species (PFAS) remain ever-present drinking water contaminants. While some physical adsorption technologies for PFAS removal have been implemented on a large scale, they are limited by high cost and low effectiveness. In this work, an amphiphilic coating was developed and...
About one-third of Colorado's municipalities and counties have not tested for toxic "forever chemicals" in their water supply. Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or "PFAS," can cause a host of health issues and CBS News Colorado has reported extensively on their impact and efforts throughout...
来源:‘Forever chemicals’ at landfills threaten environmental justice communities | Environmental Working Group 垃圾填埋场作为垃圾处理过程中最省力的一种处理方式,正是因为该方式的使用频繁,也就导致人们在具体处理问题上会有欠考虑的部分,包括在实际填埋之后的过程中,其残留的渗透液以及大量塑料制品堆积而造成的复合...
As water systems across Colorado, and the entire country, grapple with how to remove toxic "forever chemicals" from their drinking water supplies, researchers at the Colorado School of Mines have invented and patented a new process to eliminate
Engineers at the University of British Columbia have developed a new water treatment that removes "forever chemicals" from drinking water safely, efficiently—and for good. "Think Brita filter, but a thousand times better," says UBC chemical and biological engineering professor Dr. Madjid Mohseni,...
The detection made Kalispell the first Montana public water system to test perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances at above health advisory levels. Now, the city is considering possible actions to address the contaminants in its water supply, sometimes referred to as “forever” chemicals because...
