Advanced Filtration Systems: In response to concerns over per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in drinking water, advanced treatment systems employing Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) and ion exchange resins are being implemented. For example, the Blue Mountains region in Australia is installing such systems to reduce PFAS levels in the water supply.
Plasma-Based Treatment: Research into non-thermal plasma at atmospheric pressure (NTP APPJ) shows promise for degrading PFAS compounds in contaminated water. This method could offer an effective treatment option for PFAS, including newer substitute compounds like ADONA and GenX.
