  1. 1. PFAS Contamination in Groundwater; Evaluating Factors Influencing the Impact of PFAS Contamination on the Drinking Water Source in a Holistic Approach _________________________

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Författare :Anna Söderman; [2023]
    Nyckelord :PFAS; Contamination; Firefighting Foam; Groundwater; Drinking Water; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Aqueuous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) containing Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) is one of the major sources of groundwater contamination in Sweden. Groundwater contamination caused by the use of AFFF in correlation to fire training events was investigated in Kallinge, Sweden. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The Role of Perfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) contaminated food for male infertility : A Scoping review

    Master-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för hälso- och vårdvetenskap (HV)

    Författare :Tehseen Kamran; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Per-or polyfluoroalkyl substances; diet; food; male infertility;

    Sammanfattning : Background: The trend of male infertility is increasing and it correlates with industrial development which has introduced various industrial contaminants in the environment and human life. PFASs are one of those contaminants. Humans are exposed to PFAS through various routes and sources, especially through food and diet. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Human Exposure to Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl : Substances through Fish Consumption

    Master-uppsats, Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

    Författare :Welmoed Nauta; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances; Human exposure; Fish consumption; Glasbruket; Target analysis; Mass balance analysis;

    Sammanfattning : Human exposure to per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) occurs mainly through two pathways, inhalation and ingestion. Dietary exposure to persistent organic pollutants (POPs), including PFAS, is driven mainly by the consumption of foods of marine or terrestrial animal origin. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Hydrodynamic Modelling of Spread of Perfluoroalkyl Octanoic Sulphonate and Perfluoroalkyl Hexanoic Sulphonate in Lake Ekoln

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Författare :Prajwol Prajapati; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Hydrodynamic modelling; water quality; PFAS; PFOS; PFHxS; MIKE 3 FM; Ekoln; Fyrisån;

    Sammanfattning : Per and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are found ubiquitously in the environment across the globe.These substances have high persistence due to the strong carbon and fluorine bond. In the aquaticenvironment, due to high persistence, these substances don’t decay easily and are detected on the surfaceas well as in groundwater sources. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Evaluation of selected parameters of Total Oxidisable Precursor Assay on per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances

    Magister-uppsats, Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

    Författare :Sofia Francois; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances PFASs ; Total oxidisable precursor TOP assay; solidphase extraction SPE ; washing steps; PFAS precursor compounds.;

    Sammanfattning : Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are man-made fluorinated compounds that havebeen detected in humans, the environment, and wildlife. The strong C-F bonds contribute tothe high thermal stability of some PFASs and make them extremely resistant to degradationunder normal environmental conditions. LÄS MER
