Project description
The overall objective of the project is to gain fundamental understanding of the recovery and destruction of PFAS compounds.
This should enable the development of a breakthrough solution for the complete mineralization of PFAS compounds.
Therefore, the FF-PFAS partners (KU Leuven, UGent, UAntwerpen and VITO) will use their unique experimental equipment
and analytical capabilities to investigate high- and low-temperature alternatives for the destruction of PFAS
combined with their strong knowledge of fundamental reaction kinetics, catalysis, advanced chemoinformatics and
reactor design.
