• W578045485 abstract "Perfluoroalkylated substances (PFASs) are a group of synthetic compounds that have gained growing attention due to their environmental persistence, toxicity and their potential to bioaccumulate. Even though PFASs are not occurring naturally in our environment, they are globally distributed and can be found ubiquitously in air, water, soil, wildlife as well as in humans. PFASs have primarily been used, due to their unique properties of being both hydrophilic and hydrophobic, as surfactants in numerous products such as firefighting foams, paint, leather and textile coating. The occurrence of PFASs in drinking water as well as in wastewater makes it important to develop effective techniques to remove these compounds from drinking water sources and wastewater. To be able to effectively remove PFASs from drinking water and wastewater it is important to understand which treatment process is most efficient and how the removal efficiency is affected by the physicochemical properties of PFASs and characteristics of water.In this study, the removal efficiency of PFASs was investigated using six different water types with varying dissolved organic carbon (DOC) character. Four different treatment techniques were evaluated including anion exchange using MIEX® resins, coagulation with iron (III) chloride (FeCl3), adsorption using powdered activated carbon (PAC) and nanofiltration (NF) membrane. The batch experiments were performed in laboratory-scale for 14 individual PFASs including C3-11, C13 perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids (PFCAs), C4, C6, C8 perfluoroalkyl sulfonic acids (PFSAs) and perfluorooctane sulfonamide (FOSA). The results showed that the removal efficiency of PFASs was dependent on both perfluorocarbon chain length as well as functional group, with an increase in removal efficiency with increased perfluorocarbon chain length. Short-chained PFASs (C!6) were removed in less extent than the long chained PFASs for all treatment techniques. Amongst the four treatment techniques investigated, NF membrane exhibited the best removal efficiency for both short- and long chained PFASs (on average, 51%). Lower removal efficiencies for PFASs were observed for MIEX (33%) < FeCl3 (16%) < PAC (14%). However, all tested treatment techniques used in this study exhibited generally low removal efficiency (< 78%), in particular for the short-chained PFASs (C!6, < 41%) Results using three different doses of PAC (i.e. 20, 50, 100 mg L-1) showed an increase in removal (i.e. 2.2-41%, 8.0-78% and 12-92% respectively) with increasing dose. No significant trends were found between PFAS removal and DOC removal for any of the treatments (p<0.05, student t-test). However, the removal efficiency was different of the six different water types, which indicates that the DOC characteristics (i.e. Freshness, humification index, pH and absorbance) have an influence on the removal efficiency of PFASs in water." @default.
