EREF expands PFAS literature review

The Environmental Research & Education Foundation (EREF), Raleigh, North Carolina, has expanded its comprehensive PFAS literature review to include more than 1,500 resources, providing waste industry professionals with a catalog of peer-reviewed research and technical reports. The expanded review also features a curated list of 22 key resources, as well as a collection of national and state agencies and organizations focused on PFAS. 

PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) remain a critical challenge in materials management, EREF says, with regulatory changes, treatment technologies and landfill leachate concerns evolving rapidly. EREF says its literature review serves as a key resource for researchers, policymakers and industry stakeholders seeking data-driven insights into PFAS and its environmental impact, synthesis and detection and treatment strategies.
