PFAS compounds are notorious for hanging around ‚forever‘ in the environment. They’re commonly removed from water by concentrating them out. But a research team has now developed an organic photocatalyst, that when exposed to cheap blue light from LEDs, breaks down the carbon-flourine bonds and renders the PFAS harmless. Are there other promising techniques for doing this?
