Chlorinated solvent usage at a former printing facility in Orange County, California (Figure 1) contaminated the soil, soil vapor, and groundwater with tetrachloroethene (PCE) and trichloroethene (TCE).
A new solid, colloidal organic material (AquiFix) markedly improves remedial outcomes for in situ (i.e., in place) bio-barrier treatments designed to stop migrating CVOC plumes.
The information EPA receives under this order will not only improve the Agency’s understanding of human health effects of HFPO, but also the effects of dozens of PFAS.
Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science and Technology (DGIST) Professor Park Chi-Young's team successfully developed an 'atypical porous polymer material' that can completely remove phenolic organic contaminants in water.
From creating green, re-engineered organisms to practical and useful chemistry without waste and organic solvents, this approach can help be broadly used in the field for various reactions.
