Erlend Sørmo presents our pilot scale study about how pyrolyses of #PFAS contaminated organic waste will eliminate >98% of PFAS in carbon negative way! #SETACDublin #SLUDGEFFECT @InfoNGI

Gabriela Castro presents a rapid method to quantify #OPFRs in sewage sludge and biochar. We used this merhod to show how sludge pyrolysis can retain elimnate #OPFRs but retain carbon and nutrients. #SETACDublin #SLUDGEFFECT
@InfoNGI @NTNU

New #SLUDGEFFECT publication tackling the problematic presence of #OPFRs in #sludge #biosolids in two different ways:

1) developed a novel, fast way to quantify them

2) explored their removal through abiotic transformation, incineration and pyrolyses

In #SLUDGEFFECT we explore ways of removing #PFAS, #microplastic, #phthalates and other contaminants in #sludge through pilot scale dry pyrolyses and thermal treatments, to recycle nutrients and carbon

New: Using #PFAS contaminated sewage sludge to remediate PFAS in 2 steps:

1) Use dry pyrolyses to destroy PFAS and convert the sludge into a char

2) Use the char as a sorbent to immobilize PFAS in wastewater or soil
