What are PFAS?
• Per and Polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a class of man-made chemicals.
• The carbon-fluorine bond is the shortest and strongest chemical bond in nature
• Persistent and resistant to degradation • PFAS family=thousands of diverse compounds• PFAS are found in people, wildlife and fish all over the
world.• Some PFAS can stay in people’s bodies a long time. • Some PFAS do not break down easily in the
environment.

Uses of PFAS
• Commercial and consumer products containing PFAS were first introduced in the 1950s
• PFAS have been used for many years to make products that resist heat, stains, grease and water

Adsorption – GAC and AIX• GAC/AIX: Breakthrough correlates with chain length.1,2,3,4,7
• GAC/AIX: Faster breakthrough for PFCAs than for PFSAs of equal carbon chain length (PFOA faster than PFOS). 1,2,3,4
• GAC/AIX: Organic matter has a negative impact upon adsorption. 1,4
• GAC/AIX: Desorption of short-chain PFCAs during co-removal (C ≤ 6 PFCA). 2,3,4
• GAC: higher surface area and larger micropores are more effective.1,5
• GAC: Dual-contactor design, careful monitoring, frequent carbon changes have proven effective at removing PFOA/PFOS.2,6

Adsorption – Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC)• Effective towards long-chain PFAS. • Strongly dependent on organic matter and
PAC type.• GAC is typically more effective than PAC in
surface water treatment because GAC treats coagulated water that has less organic matter.

Membrane Filtration• Microfiltration and ultrafiltration provide poor removal1
• Reverse osmosis (RO) and nanofiltration (NF) provide good removal1,2,3,4,5,6,7
• RO is the most expensive to implement and operate.• RO and NF produces a concentrated waste stream that
contains high levels of PFAS that could be difficult to treat and dispose of.

Chemical Oxidation• PFOA and PFOS are resistant to oxidation by ozonation and
advanced oxidation processes, such as peroxone, Fenton’s reagent, ferrate, and UV/hydrogen peroxide.1,2,3
• However, other advanced oxidation technologies have proven effective: photochemical, photocatalytic, direct photolysis, persulfate, and catalyzed H2O2 propagation.2,3,5,6
• Nonselective radicals: ●OH, O2●-, SO4
●-, CO3●-.
• In general more effective towards PFOA than PFOS and longer-chain PFAA.

Thermal/Nonthermal Destruction• Thermal-chemical reactions, incineration, sonochemistry, sub- or supercritical, microwave-
hydrothermal, E-Beam irradiation, electrochemical, and plasma electric discharge.1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8
• Thermal destruction (e.g., sonolysis) involves breaking C-C and C-F with high temperature.
• Non-thermal destruction (e.g., electrochemical, plasma) leverages both advanced oxidation and reduction processes.
• Limitations: production of toxic byproducts (for nonthermal), greenhouse gasses, and can be relatively more expensive than commercially available AOPs and sorption processes.
• Thermal destruction relies less on oxidizing and reducing radicals, thus toxic byproducts are less of an issue with these processes.
• Relevancy towards smaller volume concentrated waste streams, where reactions times can be manipulated to control energy requirements.1-Stratton, et al. 2017.

Conclusions
• PFAS are extremely persistent and bioaccumulative• There are no Federal Regulations – only Health Advisories • Ineffective water treatment techniques:
• Ferric or alum coagulation • Granular filtration, microfiltration, ultrafiltration • Aeration/oxidation: permanganate, ultraviolet/hydrogen peroxide• Disinfection: ozone, chlorine dioxide, chlorine, and chloramines
• Anion exchange and granular activated carbon treatment preferably remove longer-chain PFAS
• Reverse osmosis and nanofiltration demonstrated significant removal for all the PFAS
