Using a Continuous‐Improvement Approach for Industrial PFAS Management

Journal Article · · Journal of the American Water Works Association
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1002/awwa.70007· OSTI ID:3005441
Lowering per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) levels in the long term requires more than end-of-pipe treatment and expensive infrastructure upgrades. Here, a continuous-improvement framework can serve as a guide for active communication and engagement with upstream industrial dischargers. Measurement and monitoring, source reduction, management, and workforce development form essential pillars for effective PFAS management.
