Adsorption and solid-phase photocatalytic degradation of perfluorooctane sulfonate in water using gallium-doped carbon-modified titanate nanotubes

Yangmo Zhu et al.

Summary: The new adsorptive photocatalyst Ga/TNTs@AC showed faster adsorption kinetics and higher affinity for PFOS, degrading and mineralizing a significant percentage of pre-sorbed PFOS within a short UV irradiation time. The efficient PFOS photodegradation regenerates the catalyst for repeated uses without the need for chemical regenerants, attributing to the oxygen vacancies that facilitate O-2(center dot-) generation and suppress recombination of e(-)/h(+) pairs. The degradation of PFOS by Ga/TNTs@AC involves the cleavage of the sulfonate group and conversion into PFOA through a stepwise defluorination mechanism.

Highly Efficient Hydrated Electron Utilization and Reductive Destruction of Perfluoroalkyl Substances Induced by Intermolecular Interaction

Zhanghao Chen et al.

Summary: A binary composite was developed for the efficient decomposition of PFASs using hydrated electrons, and it was found that the reaction efficiency depended on both the yield of hydrated electrons and the interaction between PFOA and indole derivatives. Among the derivatives, indole exhibited the highest degradation performance due to its ability to generate hydrated electrons and form hydrogen bonding with PFOA.

Role of hydrogenated moiety in redox treatability of 6:2 fluorotelomer sulfonic acid in chrome mist suppressant solution

Yixiang Bao et al.

Summary: The study showed that 6:2 FTS can be rapidly degraded under the UV/PS system, but the presence of hydrogenated moieties significantly slowed down the degradation rate under the UV/SF system. Most decomposed fluorinated compounds were converted to fluoride in both systems.

Treatment of PFAS-containing landfill leachate using an enhanced contact plasma reactor

Raj Kamal Singh et al.

Summary: Using a bench-scale plasma reactor, PFAS in landfill leachate samples were effectively degraded, with PFOS and PFOA removed below USEPA's health advisory concentration levels in a short time. Long-chain PFAAs were removed by over 99.9% and short-chain PFAAs by 10-99.9%, demonstrating high removal efficiency.

Reductive defluorination of Perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) by hydrated electrons generated upon UV irradiation of 3-Indole-acetic-acid in 12-Aminolauric-Modified montmorillonite

Alex Kugler et al.

Summary: A method of degrading PFOS using hydrated electrons generated from IAA upon UV irradiation was developed, achieving 40-70% defluorination at neutral pH. The spatial proximity of IAA and PFOS on an organic polymer was found to be effective for this process, even in the presence of bicarbonate and chloride ions or natural groundwater. This approach provides an alternative for treating concentrated PFAS solutions under ambient conditions.

Mojtaba Qanbarzadeh et al.

Summary: Semiconductor photocatalysis is explored for treating PFAS-contaminated wastewater, with Bi3O(OH)(PO4)(2) catalyst system showing promising PFCA degradation capabilities. Different photoreactor designs lead to varied degradation efficiencies and energy consumption rates for PFAs, with implications for practical reactor design criteria.
