Fighting Fluorine with Fluorine: New Materials Remove PFAS from Groundwater

Update: 2023-05-03

Description

Researchers funded by the NIEHS Superfund Research Program (SRP) created a novel class of materials that can attract and remove per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from water. According to the authors, the new technology — called Fluor Mop — can be regenerated, reused, and is potentially less expensive than current remediation strategies.
