Overview

This review analyzes PFAS emissions in waste thermal treatment processes, highlighting removal efficiencies and key methodologies.

Key Points

  • Thermal treatment effectively removes PFAS, achieving up to 100% removal efficiency at high temperatures.
  • PFAS concentrations in inlet wastes varied, with PFPeA reaching 400 ng g-1, indicating significant presence.
  • Inclusion criteria focused on studies from major databases assessing various thermal treatment methods for PFAS.
  • Further research is needed to evaluate the mineralization and fate of potential reactive compounds in emissions.
