  10. We Developed A Way To Use Light To Dismantle PFAS 'Forever Chemicals' — Long-Lasting Environmental Pollutants 12/16/2024
    Conventional water treatment methods can remove PFAS from water, but these processes merely concentrate the contaminants instead of destroying them. However, a new photocatalytic system has been developed that directly targets and dismantles the molecular structure of PFAS, holding the potential for complete mineralization.
