PFAS is a family of chemical compounds (over 4,000) and are in most everything we use in our daily lives. These forever chemicals have been identified as an emerging contaminant and have found their way into some of our water systems. Discover what experts are thinking about when it comes to understanding and addressing PFAS in our water supply during Southern California Water Coalition’s Water Quality Matters webinar on February 19.
The development of treatment technologies, that can reliably, sustainably, and cost effectively remove PFAS from water and maximize the use of our water resources is a critical short-term step.
This SCWC program will explore PFAS, what it is, how we can treat the existing conditions and explore long-term solutions that replace these chemicals to ensure the protection of future generations’ access to water today and for tomorrow. Register HERE.
