The perched water zone apparently developed after the demolition of a building used for chemicals by leaving low permeability relics of the building slab after demolition and the presence of a relatively thin clayey horizon (approx. 2 m thick). The regional aquifer consists of weathered shale bedrock beneath the perching layer. The difference between the watertables of the perched and regional aquifers is between 0.5 and 1.2 m. The perched water was found to contain elevated concentrations of volatile organic compounds during initial sampling. A study was conducted to examine the perched water more closely and to describe the (1) controls on perching behavior, (2) contaminant flux through the unsaturated zone (soil gas) and to the regional aquifer, and (3) differences in the water quality of the perched groundwater and that in the regional aquifer. The data evaluation showed that the perched aquifer system is dynamic both in vertical and horizontal flow. Nonetheless, the hydrochemical data from the two aquifers were distinct in chemical composition despite their close proximity.</p>","PeriodicalId":55081,"journal":{"name":"Ground Water Monitoring and Remediation","volume":"45 3","pages":"58-68"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ngwa.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/gwmr.70006","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145129458","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While traditional monitored natural attenuation (MNA) has proven to be an effective remedial option for many degradable contaminants, its direct application to PFAS has been limited due to these chemicals' inherent stability. However, the development of PFAS monitored retention (PMR) broadens the scope of MNA, incorporating an understanding of how retention processes—such as sorption, matrix diffusion, and precursor retention—help to mitigate PFAS mobility and mass discharge in the environment. This paper summarizes PMR, discussing its evolution from traditional MNA, key retention mechanisms, evaluation methodologies, and potential site-specific and broader applications. PMR offers a scientifically robust, economically viable approach for managing PFAS-contaminated groundwater sites when immediate threats to receptors are absent or as an interim remedy pending the development of cost-effective in situ destruction technologies.</p>","PeriodicalId":55081,"journal":{"name":"Ground Water Monitoring and Remediation","volume":"45 3","pages":"37-49"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ngwa.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/gwmr.70001","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145129000","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This not only extends projects, leading to increased costs, but it also contributes to delays in the fine-tuning of remediation processes, as any modifications are made on outdated data. These off-site analytical monitoring methods are also usually limited to the list of compounds in targeted methods such as EPA method 1633, which does not include some precursors that may convert into more harmful PFAS compounds over time. The FRED-PFAS sensor is a real-time monitoring system that detects the sum of anionic PFAS species (perfluoro- and polyfluoroalkyl, >C4 chain length) present in a sample with similar sensitivity across key PFAS species, as demonstrated with perfluorooctanoic acid, the precursor 6:2 fluorotelomer sulfonate, and a commercial AFFF mixture. When deployed at AFFF-impacted groundwater and an upstream aircraft rescue and firefighting PFAS removal project, the FRED-PFAS detector was able to provide actionable same-day data that correlated with EPA 1633 methods and total organic fluorine measurements. This generates actionable PFAS data on-site, enabling faster turnaround times and reduced overall PFAS monitoring costs.</p>","PeriodicalId":55081,"journal":{"name":"Ground Water Monitoring and Remediation","volume":"45 3","pages":"34-36"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ngwa.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/gwmr.70000","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145128771","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
