Abstract
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are highly persistent and widespread contaminants that occur in many unconventional water resources at concentrations preventing the water’s use for beneficial purposes. Electrochemical oxidation, low-temperature plasma treatment, and sonolysis are three advanced water treatment technologies that have recently become commercially available for PFAS destruction. Specific treatment aspects that depend on both water quality and water quantity define each technology’s own niche in fit-for-purpose applications. With the shared ability to destroy PFAS down to very low parts-per-trillion levels, these three water treatment technologies offer practical and field-ready solutions to tap into the great wealth of unconventional water resources.
期刊介绍：
Current Opinion in Chemical Engineering is devoted to bringing forth short and focused review articles written by experts on current advances in different areas of chemical engineering. Only invited review articles will be published.
The goals of each review article in Current Opinion in Chemical Engineering are:
1. To acquaint the reader/researcher with the most important recent papers in the given topic.
2. To provide the reader with the views/opinions of the expert in each topic.
The reviews are short (about 2500 words or 5-10 printed pages with figures) and serve as an invaluable source of information for researchers, teachers, professionals and students. The reviews also aim to stimulate exchange of ideas among experts.
Themed sections:
Each review will focus on particular aspects of one of the following themed sections of chemical engineering:
1. Nanotechnology
2. Energy and environmental engineering
3. Biotechnology and bioprocess engineering
4. Biological engineering (covering tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, drug delivery)
5. Separation engineering (covering membrane technologies, adsorbents, desalination, distillation etc.)
6. Materials engineering (covering biomaterials, inorganic especially ceramic materials, nanostructured materials).
7. Process systems engineering
8. Reaction engineering and catalysis.
