Exploring the adsorption of short and long chain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) to different zeolites using environmental samples
Maura Mancinelli, Annalisa Martucci, Lutz Ahrens
Abstract
18 PFASs were studied in adsorption on 9 different zeolites and powdered activated carbon (PAC) using ultrapure and real water samples. Zeolite beta with SAR equal to 25 had the most promising performance among all the zeolites investigated.
