EPA Update on Methods for Stationary Source PFAS Emission Measurements, April 2023
Citation:
Jackson, S. EPA Update on Methods for Stationary Source PFAS Emission Measurements, April 2023. CAPCA Spring 2023, Asheville, NC, April 12 - 14, 2023.
Impact/Purpose:
Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) are widely used, long lasting chemicals, components of which break down very slowly over time. Much of the interest and research into health impacts, and regulatory developments over the last decade have focused on PFAS in water. However, the importance of the air quality pathway has become better understood in recent years. This session will focus on a brief regulatory update on PFAS, the latest on thermal treatment methods, and PFAS stack test methods that are available to quantify PFAS air emissions
Description:
Presentation to be given at Carolinas Air Pollution Control Association's Spring 2023 meeting on EPA's source methods for PFAS in air.
