Overview
Key facts
This masterclass will consider and discuss the latest information on the problem of PFAS in drinking water. This will cover the extent of the problem, where the PFAS comes from, their chemical characteristics, how they get into drinking water sources and their removal efficiency using conventional and advanced treatment. We will explain how different PFAS chemical structures define how well they can be removed from water and the implications of widescale PFAS treatment technology on the water industry. We will also describe the current methodologies used for the analysis of PFAS and consider the latest information on the health impacts of PFAS on the human body.
Cranfield University's The PFAS 'Forever Chemicals' in Drinking Water - Regulation, Fate and Treatment programme will teach you more about this topic.
