Development of a depth filter for PFAS removal
Description
In this project by the ZHAW Institute of Chemistry and Biotechnology, a depth filter layer based on cellulose fibers and various adsorbents is being developed to specifically remove polyfluorinated compounds (PFAS) from drinking water. The efficiency of the depth filter for PFAS is being investigated using combustion ion chromatography (CIC).
