A groundbreaking new material, activated by sunlight, promises to transform the fight against ‘forever chemicals’ by converting harmful PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) in water into benign fluoride. This innovative development offers a sustainable and efficient solution to a widespread environmental challenge.

The technology leverages solar energy to trigger a chemical reaction, effectively neutralizing the persistent compounds found in everything from non-stick cookware to firefighting foams. This breakthrough could significantly impact water purification efforts globally, providing a cleaner, safer water supply for communities burdened by PFAS contamination.
