Two New Methods to Destroy PFAS | Science News
Scientists are racing to destroy PFAS, the infamous “forever chemicals,” with two groundbreaking methods: one uses collapsing bubbles to generate extreme heat, while the other employs cold plasma and rising gas bubbles to shatter the molecules. Both show promise in breaking down PFAS and releasing fluoride, with the goal of cleaning industrial wastewater before it contaminates rivers and oceans. Germany is leading the charge to protect its water, testing hydrodynamic cavitation and cold plasma techniques—each with unique strengths and challenges. Researchers hope to combine both for a more…
