Engineered Sorbents and Process for Selective Removal of Perfluorinated Organics Species from Water
This technology represents a new chemical process for selective removal of greater than 90% of the perfluorinated organics (PFAS) from contaminated water per pass through a sorption stage. The separation media comprises a selective surface modifier, with tunable properties, incorporated on an inexpensive material, which may be a cellulose sponge, fiber,...
