This grant is for supporting a CESU partner in conducting crucial research on per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and various wastewater constituents. The objective is to perform comprehensive chemical analysis of these contaminants within diverse environmental and experimental samples. This includes investigating their presence, movement, and ultimate destination across various hydrogeologic settings and infrastructure. Key areas of focus encompass coastal watersheds, shallow soils and sediments, groundwater systems, and wastewater treatment facilities. The collaborative effort aims to deepen the understanding of how these substances behave in complex natural and engineered environments, informing strategies for environmental protection and public health.
