All-in-one PFAS destruction works at low light levels

Engineers at the University of British Columbia (UBC) have developed a high-speed, all-in-one, catch and destroy solution for treating Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) that has the potential to work with low levels of UV light.

The catalyst, which can be produced from forest or farm waste, breaks 90 per cent of PFAS chemicals down into harmless components in as little as three hours. The solution is faster than many current and comparable offerings and potentially more economical and sustainable.
