6. 5. Selected PFAS in the water treatment at the waste-to-energy plant in Umeå : Investigating concentration and composition of selected PFAS in different water treatment steps

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

   Author : Amanda Carlund; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The present study investigated the changes in concentration and composition of five selected PFAS substances in the water treatment at the waste-to-energy plant in Umeå. The five PFAS were PFHxA, PFHpA, PFOA, PFHxS and PFOS. As PFAS exists in a variety of consumer products, they will to some extent end up in waste incineration. READ MORE
