Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are found everywhere, including food, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals. This review introduces PFASs comprehensively, discussing their nature identifying interconnection with microplastics impacts on public health the environment. The human cost of decades delay, cover-ups, mismanagement plastic waste is outlined briefly explained. Following that, long-term effects critically assessed. Risk assessment then reviewed, mentioning different tools models. Scientific research in United States America analyzed, taking into consideration Center for Disease Control (CDC)'s PFAS Medical Studies Guidelines. impact activities studies around world have focused levels food products dietary intake countries such as China, European countries, USA Australia. Moreover, drinking water regard to risks, mitigation, regulatory needs, account chemical contaminants safety. Finally, briefings specific regions discussed, referring Australia, Vietnam, Canada, Europe, (USA), South America, Africa. crisis a multifaceted issue, exacerbated by mismanagement, it discussed context applying following problem-solving analytical tools: Domino Effect Model accident causation, Swiss Cheese Theory Model, Ishikawa Fish Bone Root Cause Analysis.

Advancements in antibiofouling hydrogel-based approaches for the removal of short-chain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances in drinking water treatment

Frontiers in Chemical Engineering, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 7

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are emerging contaminants with increasing health concern due to their persistence, widespread presence, adverse effects. Short-chain PFAS, in particular, more challenging remove using conventional water treatment technologies. Hydrogel adsorbents have shown as a promising solution for short-chain PFAS removal, offering high adsorption capacity, rapid kinetics, tunable material properties. However, biofouling contamination which is easier happen on wet hydrogels compared process, could significantly reduce efficiency, shorten operational lifespan, increase overall costs. Antibiofouling modifications present viable strategy enhance hydrogel functionality drinking applications. This review summarizes recent advancements of antibiofouling removal applications through functional group modifications. Furthermore, it highlights gaps the current literature, particularly lack studies development evaluation both resistance capabilities
