“…Taking into account the individual recovery of the PFASs detected on that day, 84% of the AOF concentration could be attributed to PFHxA. Therefore, the amount of unidentified PFASs in this sample was negligible compared to those found in other facility effluents (Dauchy et al 2017). …”

“…Many conventional remedial technologies used to address organic compounds, such as hydrocarbons and chlorinated solvents, are ineffective due to the low volatility of PFASs and their resistance to biodegradation. Technologies such as air sparging, oxygenation to induce aerobic conditions, and some forms of chemical oxidation have been shown to cause the transformation of polyfluorinated PFAA precursors into PFAAs (Dauchy et al., ; McGuire et al., ). Application of these technologies will likely increase the mass flux of PFASs from treatment zones.…”

“…In some cases, PFAS concentrations in the effluent have been higher than those observed in the influent (Filipovic & Berger, ; Guerra et al, ; Sinclair & Kannan, ). This has been attributed to the biodegradation of PFAA precursors to PFAAs (Arvaniti, Ventouri, Stasinakis, & Thomaidis, ; Dauchy et al, ; Schultz et al, ), which are terminal degradation products of PFAS (Arvaniti et al, ; Z. Wang et al, ). PFAAs can be produced from the breakdown of PFAA precursors or can be directly used in commercial and industrial products (Benskin, Li, Ikonomou, Grace, & Li, ; Favreau et al, ).…”
