Advances in the Fate of PFAS and other Emerging Contaminants as well as Microorganisms and Colloids in the Environment
Session ID#: 160107
Session Description:
Fate and transport of microorganisms, colloids, PFAS, and emerging contaminants in the environment are essential for assessing environmental risk and developing remediation strategies. Mobility of microorganisms, colloids, and nanoparticles is important for both particle-based remediation and their potential impacts on human and ecological health. PFAS and other emerging contaminants (e.g., pharmaceuticals, flame retardants, endocrine disruptors) are of concern both with regards to drinking water sources and more broadly the entire ecosystem. This session invites experimental and field based contributions as well as those related to model development and upscaling of conceptual models governing transport.
