Alston & Bird’s Jeffrey Dintzer and Gregory Berlin look at EPA’s recent Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) report and note that EPA is apparently suspicious of what it has characterized as a “seemingly limited scope of PFAS reporting.” EPA plans to remove the de minimis exemption for PFAS, which is not a surprise given its increased…
This study critically evaluates the thermal decomposition mechanisms, pathways, and byproducts of PFASs that are crucial to the design and operation of thermal treatment processes. May 2, 2022 | Environmental Science & Technology
Aging and washing of fabrics with durable water-repellant coatings made with PFAS release PFAS to the environment, while tumble drying does not affect the PFAS concentrations in textiles. April 19, 2022 | Environmental Science & Technology
The study presents a comprehensive review of global measurements of PFAS on ambient particulate matter dating back to the first reports from the early 2000s. April 12, 2022 | Journal of Environmental Science: Processes & Impacts
Investigations show that the household point-of-use (POU) water purifiers constituted with coconut shell activated carbon can achieve 21%-99% removal for 14 legacy and emerging PFAS in tap water based on the ratio of influent and effluent. April 11, 2022 | ScienceDirect
