Scientists are testing two promising ways to destroy PFAS, the stubborn “forever chemicals” that can accumulate in water and resist normal treatment. One method uses collapsing vapor bubbles to generate extreme heat and reactive molecules, while the other uses cold plasma and rising gas bubbles to pull PFAS to the surface and break them apart.
That’s great. Now all we have to do is deploy them at global scale to take care of the years of accumulated crud we’ve produced and dumped everywhere without thinking, which should be easy. Sort of like clearing the floating plastic detritus from the oceans, which we know how to do, don’t we? By the way, how’s that one going?
