The Evolution And Impact Of PFAS Regulations

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a collection of synthetic chemicals that have existed since the 1940s. They’re famous for their remarkable resistance to water and grease, so they’re often called “forever chemicals.” With thousands of different compounds, their incredibly strong carbon-fluorine bonds make them persist in the environment for an extended time. In this article, Transcend will break down the evolution and impact of PFAS regulations over the years while suggesting innovative technology to assist the affected industries.
