Understanding Emerging Contaminants and PFAS

Emerging contaminants refer to a group of chemical compounds that have recently been recognized as potentially harmful to human health and the environment. Among these contaminants, PFAS have received significant attention due to their persistent nature and links to adverse health effects.

What are PFAS?

Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) are a class of synthetic chemicals widely used in various industrial applications and consumer products. PFAS are known for their unique properties, including resistance to heat, oil, and water. These properties make them useful in manufacturing processes, firefighting foams, non-stick coatings, and stain-resistant materials.

Health and Environmental Concerns

While PFAS have numerous practical applications, their persistence in the environment and potential adverse health effects have raised concerns worldwide. Scientific studies have found associations between exposure to PFAS and various health issues, including hormone disruption, developmental problems, immune system dysfunction, and certain types of cancer.
