Researchers at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities (U of M) may have discovered a new practical and cost-effective way to clean up PFAS-contaminated groundwater. PFAS (per- and poly fluoroalkyl substances), often called “forever chemicals,” are human-made substances that don’t easily break down and can accumulate in drinking water and the environment. The U of M study tested a polymer-stabilized Read More

PFAS Study Indicates Widespread Contamination
Researchers at the PFAS Project Lab at Northeastern University have made an unsettling discovery – per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) contamination in the United States is more widespread than previously thought. Researchers at the PFAS Project Lab released updates to their Known PFAS Contamination Site Tracker and the Presumptive PFAS Contamination Dataset. The tools identify Read More
