The National Science Foundation awarded a $329,938 Project Grant to the University of Nevada, Reno through the Engineering (47.041) federal grant program.
The grant funds a research project titled "GOALI: GAS PHASE PFAS AND ORGANOFLOURINE RELEASE FROM AFFF: MEASUREMENT, IDENTIFICATION, AND EXPOSURE MITIGATION." The University of Nevada, Reno will measure, identify, and work to mitigate exposures from gas phase per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and organofluorine compounds released from aqueous film forming foam (AFFF). The research aims to advance understanding of gas phase PFAS behavior and inform strategies to reduce associated exposures. The three-year project commenced on August 1, 2021 and is scheduled for completion by July 31, 2024. The place of performance is the University of Nevada, Reno in Reno, Nevada.
