EPA’s PFAS Strategic Roadmap
- Proposed federal drinking water standards for PFOA and PFOS were released in March 2023, with plans for finalization in 2024.
- The EPA is considering regulations for an additional 29 PFAS molecules.
Emerging Technologies
- The focus is shifting towards developing technologies that can destroy PFAS compounds, not just remove them.
- Disposing of PFAS-laden waste from current removal technologies remains a challenge.
Public Pressure
- Public advocacy will continue to drive demands for comprehensive PFAS management solutions.
- The impact of regulations will depend on factors like cost-effective technologies, disposal methods, and the scope of regulated PFAS compounds.
