Research Description
Research Description
Most treatment processes are not sufficient to remove PFASs during conventional drinking water or wastewater treatments and it has been found that the PFASs concentrations in the influent and effluent of WWTPs did not show any significant difference. It has been proved that plant uptake and sorption/retention by soil worked in concert to effectively remove PFASs from wastewater effluent. Therefore study on PFASs concentration change in the constructed wetland is needed to understand their fate and transport. Furthermore, underlying competitive sorption mechanisms and metabolism pathway need to be better understood.
