Today our paper about #PFAS destruction (at much milder conditions than previously thought possible) is out in @ScienceMagazine.

We also present a detailed, evidence-based degradation mechanism.

This paper is my entire PhD and I'm very proud of it. A 🧵:
science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
PFAS are environmental pollutants linked to negative health effects at exposure levels so low that the US EPA recently set a drinking water health advisory limit that is lower than we can measure

(a nice way of saying there's no safe level)

In the last few years, the field has gotten pretty good at removing PFAS from water.

Our group in particular has made several regenerable PFAS adsorbents. But every time we present this research, someone asks 🙋‍♂️ "What do you do with the PFAS after you've desorbed it?"
