Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) used in various industrial applications are pollutants of concern for the environment human health. Drinking water consumption is one key exposure pathway to PFAS, as recently highlighted by multiple studies on their occurrence tap bottled worldwide. However, PFAS quantification at low part-per-trillion (ng/L) or part-per-quadrillion (pg/L) concentrations remains challenging. presence blanks incomplete method recoveries can lead false positives negatives; concentration changes under different storage durations conditions also affect accuracy precision. Here, we review most recent data related analytical methods that were research articles detection from drinking water. Commonly encountered pitfalls summarized, performance appraised including limits, recovery, matrix effects, other quality assurance/quality control endpoints. In addition, collated available guidelines health advisory levels Finally, compiled legacy emerging

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) recently finalized the enforceable maximum contaminant levels for some per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in drinking water which intends to substantially decrease their level it. Conventional processes full-scale treatment plants (DWTPs) are usually inefficient PFAS removal from source (i.e., groundwater surface water). There is an increasing interest investigating/evaluating advanced technologies PFAS-contaminated help generate a number of potential solutions this engineering design challenge/problem. While numerous excellent research studies have been carried out reported literature on efficiency several removing water, mostly at lab- pilot-scales, DWTP investigations still need further attention. This study reviews US EPA’s quality guidelines/regulations, remediation DWTPs. Then, it discusses configurations water) as well suggesting future directions. Further effect environmental factors (e.g., organic matter) removal, effective elimination short-chain real using cost-effective industrially applicable technologies, efficiency/performance trains including innovative long-term produce associated costs, cost reduction/minimization via process optimization interest.

Further Insight into Extractable (Organo)fluorine Mass Balance Analysis of Tap Water from Shanghai, China

Environmental Science & Technology, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 57(38), С. 14330 - 14339

The ubiquitous occurrence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) the detection unexplained extractable organofluorine (EOF) in drinking water have raised growing concerns. A recent study reported inorganic fluorinated anions German river systems, therefore, some samples, EOF may include anions. Thus, it might be more appropriate to use term "extractable fluorine (EF) analysis" instead analysis. In this study, tap samples (n = 39) from Shanghai were collected assess levels EF/EOF, 35 target PFAS, two (tetrafluoroborate (BF4-) hexafluorophosphate (PF6-)), novel PFAS through suspect screening potential oxidizable precursors oxidative conversion. results showed that ultra-short largest contributors accounting for up 97% ΣPFAS. To best our knowledge, was first time bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (NTf2) China, p-perfluorous nonenoxybenzenesulfonate (OBS) also identified screening. Small amounts can oxidatively converted PFCAs noted after EF mass balance analysis revealed could only explain less than 36% EF. However, greatly reduced when BF4- PF6- included. These compounds further explained 44% EF, indicating role

Monitoring contamination from per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in water systems impacted by aqueous film-forming foams (AFFFs) typically addresses a few known PFAS groups. Given the diversity of PFASs present AFFFs, current analytical approaches do not comprehensively address range these systems. A suspect-screening nontarget analysis (NTA) approach was developed applied to identify novel groundwater samples contaminated historic AFFF use. total 88 were identified both passive samplers grab samples, dominated sulfonate derivatives sulfonamide-derived precursors. Several ultrashort-chain (USC) (≤C3) detected, 11 reported for first time Australian groundwater. transformation products identified, including perfluoroalkane sulfonamides (FASAs) sulfinates (PFASis). Two new (((perfluorohexyl)sulfonyl)sulfamic acid; m/z 477.9068 (E)-1,1,2,2,3,3,4,5,6,7,8,8,8-tridecafluorooct-6-ene-1-sulfonic 424.9482). This study highlights that several are overlooked using standard target analysis, therefore, potential risk all is likely be underestimated.
