2024 AIChE Annual Meeting

Session: Emerging Treatment Technologies and Characterization for PFAS Contamination I

This session promotes the research of water treatment methods which can successfully remove per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) as well as novel methods of characterizing PFAS in wastewater streams to facilitate further treatment.
