Sorption of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances by lignin in pulp and paper wastewater

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: among compounds with the same functional group. Long-chain (C ≥ 6) PFAS demonstrated higher sorption compared to short-chain (C ≤ 5) homologs. The sorption-desorption capacities, partitioning coefficients, and kinetics of PFAS reported in this study can facilitate predictive models for PFAS and assist in the development of efficient P&P waste treatment and management.
