Notes
Presents results for indirect thermal treatment of (1) PFAS alone, (2) PFAS mixed with adsorbents (including GAC), and (3) PFAS pre-adsorbed to adsorbents. Not a direct simulation of GAC reactivation, but the results may have implications for GAC reactivation.

Scope

Open ScopeIndirect Thermal DesorptionLabOtherPure PFASData in the study are not presented in a format readily recorded in the database. Conclusions include that "...the thermolysis of perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids (PFCAs), including perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), and GenX can occur at temperatures of 150–200 degrees C."

Study concludes that "... the presence or addition of GAC or other highly porous materials can accelerate thermal PFAS decomposition and alter decomposition pathways."
