Abstract:Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a class of persistent organic pollutants known as "forever chemicals". Currently, the hydrated electron-based advanced reduction process (ARP) holds promise for the elimination of PFAS. However, the efficiency of ARP is often challenged by an oxygen-rich environment, resulting in the consumption of hydrated electron source materials in exchange for the high PFAS decomposition efficiency. Herein, we developed a ternary system constructed by indole and isopropyl alcohol (IPA)… Show more
