Interestingly, the dual-frequency US/PS process can also efficiently degrade PFAS in the contaminated soil, with a 62–71% degradation of 14 PFAS (28 is the maximum number of PFAS that can be quantitatively monitored), representing an encouraging progress. Finally, the degradation pathways and kinetics of PFOA are studied by monitoring the degradation intermediates, and by indicating the combination of the dual-frequency US/PS is not simply addition with each other, but with a synergistic effect of degradation.]]> Fri 03 Jun 2022 17:06:23 AEST ]]>
