Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

High-pressure membrane technologies can be effective in mitigating perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) contamination in water matrices. This review explores recent developments in both commercial (e.g., NF and RO) and novel membrane technologies, focusing on their removal mechanisms, influential factors, and challenges. Key determinants, including solution pH, PFAS molecular structure, co-contaminants, and natural organic matter, are summarized for their impacts on PFAS removal efficiency. Novel membranes incorporating materials like graphene oxide, quaternary ammonium compounds, and metal-organic frameworks are highlighted for their potential to enhance PFAS removal, particularly the removal of short-chain PFAS. Despite promising developments, challenges such as fouling, energy demands, and scalability necessitate further research. This review highlights the significance of lab-scale studies and innovative designs in bridging the gap between laboratory findings and practical applications, thereby paving the way for sustainable, large-scale PFAS treatment.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
