- This federal Project Grant award of $1,538,562.00 from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under the Innovative Water Technology Grant Program (CFDA 66.521) aims to advance the development and validation of innovative water treatment technologies. The key objectives are to: Synthesize at least 12 styrene-functionalized, cyclodextrin-based polymer (STYDEX) and 6 covalent organic framework (COF) derivatives with varied surface chemistry and physical properties. Select and quantify a set of...
- This Project Grant award of $412,000 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) will be used by the University of Massachusetts (UMass) to investigate the use of engineered polymer microparticles to adsorb and remove per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from wastewater. The central hypothesis is that the adsorption of PFAS molecules will alter the interfacial properties of the microparticles, causing emulsions to destabilize and allowing for the capture...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $1,200,000 Project Grant under the Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083) to a collaborative research team led by the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), in partnership with several other universities across Alabama, Delaware, and South Carolina. This project aims to develop innovative technologies for the removal and conversion of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), which are synthetic chemicals that pose health and...

- 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...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) provides $420,000.00 to the Regents of the University of California at Riverside to develop a new method for degrading per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in water. The project, titled "ERASE-PFAS: Understanding and Application of a New Photocatalytic Mechanism for PFAS Degradation," aims to discover the optimal configuration of a treatment system involving ultraviolet (UV)...
- This Project Grant award, with a total funding amount of $620,000.00, was provided by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) under the Assistance to State Water Resources Research Institutes program (CFDA 15.805). The purpose of the project is to investigate how daily environmental fluctuations, or "diel cycling", impact the fate of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) precursors in a unique, diatom-dominated constructed wetland. The interdisciplinary research approach combines field...
- This $499,988 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) seeks to develop and validate an integrated sorption-photocatalytic process for the ex-situ treatment and remediation of groundwater contaminated by mixtures of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and chlorinated solvents like trichloroethylene (TCE) and tetrachloroethylene (PCE). The principal investigator and research team at Southern Illinois University Carbondale will...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $119,998 Project Grant to the University of Arizona under the Engineering federal grant program (CFDA 47.041) to develop new sorbents that can stabilize per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in sewage sludge. Approximately 55% of the 7.2 million dry metric tons of sewage sludge (biosolids) produced annually in the U.S. is applied as soil amendments and fertilizers in agriculture and land restoration. However, the increasing detection of PFAS in...
- The New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) received a $100,000 Project Grant award from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Office of Research and Development under the P3 Award: National Student Design Competition for Sustainability federal grant program (CFDA #66.516). The award will support the development of an innovative Microwave-Assisted Membrane Filtration (MWM) system to enhance the removal of Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and Perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) from...
