New innovation destroys 90% of toxic ‘forever chemicals’ in water

New research is opening the door to a simpler, cheaper way to destroy harmful chemicals that threaten water quality and public health. Scientists studying per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, are making progress in turning these toxic materials into harmless compounds using tools that are widely available and affordable. PFAS, often called “forever chemicals,” are found in thousands of everyday products—from non-stick pans and waterproo…
