  1. 16. PFAS in a Swedish wastewater treatment plant : An analysis of the effectiveness of major treatment steps on 33 PFAS

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Författare :Jonatan Forsberg; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Northern Sweden; PFAS; municipal WWTP; MBBR; GAC;

    Sammanfattning : Wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) are known spreaders of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) into the environment. Luleå University of Technology is conducting a yearlong study in which PFAS concentrations in the different treatment steps are measured at Uddebo treatment plant. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Impact of PFAS exposure on the fecal metabolome

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

    Författare :Lisa Johansson; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Gut metabolites; LC-qTOF-MS; PFAS;

    Sammanfattning : The human gut microbiota plays a crucial role in human health and therefore imbalances in gut microbiota functioning can lead to the development of metabolic disorders. Short-chain fatty acids (SCFA), tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle metabolites, bile acids (BA) and other metabolites are the essential compounds for the metabolome. LÄS MER

  3. 18. Sorption of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in contaminated water using sustainable organic- and inorganic materials

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

    Författare :Natalie Storm; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Sorption | PFAS | Contaminated water | Bark | Steel slag | Biochar | Activated carbon;

    Sammanfattning : Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a large group of anthropogenic compounds with unique properties, including chemical inertness, resistance to many degradation processes and amphiphilic structure. This makes them useful in a range of applications, but also very persistent and bioaccumulative in nature, where PFAS have been linked to adverse health effects in both animals and humans. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Designing Mesoporous Test Sticks for Measuring PFAS Concentrations in Water

    Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Nanostrukturerade material

    Författare :Amanda Hillås; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Mesoporous material; PFAS; PFOA; PFOS; Rose Bengal; adsorption;

    Sammanfattning : Water contamination through substances called per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) is a worldwide problem. Being able to measure the concentrations of PFAS in water is a first step towards beating this contamination. One alternative is to use a field test kit instead of extensive lab equipment to monitor the contaminated areas. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Could fluorinated pharmaceuticals have an impact on the EOF amount in human blood?

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

    Författare :Tilda Alvén Fimmerstad; [2022]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Recent studies have discovered an increasing amount of unknown organofluorine in human blood. This increase insinuate that humans might be exposed to potentially new and unidentified organofluorine compounds. LÄS MER
