This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $312,596 awarded on October 1, 2022 will support research at San Diego State University to develop an innovative "trap and destroy" water treatment technology for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). The university will work to optimize adsorptive photocatalysts that can selectively absorb PFAS from water and then destroy the compounds using ultraviolet or solar light. Key deliverables under the 24-month award include...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $400,000 Project Grant to The Trustees of Princeton University under the Engineering (47.041) federal grant program. The three-year award running from June 2021 through May 2024 will support research titled "ERASE-PFAS: Microbial Electrochemical Defluorination of PFAS Using Bioaugmented Acidmicrobium sp. Strain A6." Conducted at Princeton University in Princeton, New Jersey, the research aims to develop a microbial process for removing per- and...
This two-year, $194,025 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental, and Transport Systems will fund the development of a low-cost, mass-scale sorbent for removing toxic per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from drinking water. Montclair State University will design a fluorinated block copolymer sorbent that leverages self-assembly at solid-liquid interfaces to facilitate PFAS elimination. The porous polymer will be synthesized...
This federal Project Grant award for $100,000, provided by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under the P3 Award: National Student Design Competition for Sustainability (CFDA 66.516) program, aims to develop highly active catalysts for Fenton-like reactions to enhance the adsorption and removal of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from drinking water. The key objectives are to: 1) synthesize mixed metal-iron based nanostructured catalysts, 2) investigate the adsorption capacity...
