Due to the extensive utilization of PFAS and subsequent release into the environment, a wide variety of these substances have been identified in air, water, and even breast milk. In addition, most PFAS are resistant to conventional water treatment methods and can escape filtration/adsorption techniques. To address this problem, Dr. Reza’s group has developed several hydrophobic DES, which enable water-based separations.115-120 Aiming to perform a rational selection of the most suitable DES to extract PFAS […]
