Super Session: Understanding PFAS and Its Complexities (Part 1)

  • Monday, May 09, 2022
  • 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM
  • Room: W316
  • Session Number: M412

Description

Discussions around per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are on the rise, as these “emerging contaminants” are persistent in the environment and resistant to environmental degradation. In 2021’s Super Session, we discussed what PFAS are and how they can be treated. This year, we’re picking up where we left off and will take a further dive beyond the basics of PFAS. In part one, speakers will provide current research and legislation and regulation updates, and in part two, they will cover treatment options and technologies.

There will be a break from 2:30 pm - 3:00 pm between part one and part two.
