Implication

This research demonstrates enhanced mineralization of PFAS using wollastonite-bearing microdroplets, indicating potential for advanced water purification systems.

Key Points

Complete mineralization of perfluoroctanoic acid was achieved with negligible short-chain byproducts.
The mineralization process involved liquid–solid–gas contact electrification with wollastonite microdroplets.
Fluoride ions were immobilized through the formation of CaF2–SiO2 interfacial structures.
The findings highlight the intrinsic self-cleansing capacity of atmospheric mineral particles for PFAS contaminants.
