Remediation management for local and wide-spread PFAS contaminations


PFAS -as group of substances- are becoming increasingly important in the treatment of contaminated sites and harmful soil changes. The present work aid "Remediation management for local and area-wide PFAS contaminations" supports the responsible authorities in the pre-selection, evaluation and decision for a suitable and proportionate remediation procedure, shows relevant basic conditions and accompanying measures. Due to the different substance properties of PFAS, the possible remediation procedures must also be evaluated on a substance-specific basis. The advantages and disadvantages, the technical and approval requirements as well as their sustainability are shown for the possible remediation methods.
