Recent Progress in Developing Solutions for Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances in the Environment

SERDP and ESTCP have been addressing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in the environment since 2011. This session will provide an overview of issues facing military program managers as they address PFASs on their installations. It will also provide an update on the current status of research related to fate, transport, occurrence, ecosystem risks, in situ and ex situ remediation, sampling methods, and treatment of PFAS-contaminated waste.
