SUMMARY:Back to Basics: PFAS Chemistry 101 – An EBC “Lunch & Learn” Webinar
DESCRIPTION:This collaborative webinar between the EBC Emerging Contaminants and Ascending Professionals Committees will provide a return to the basics of PFAS chemistry. \nMany practitioners are not aware that the chemistry of PFAS can have a significant impact on further evaluations and decision-making\, such as fate & transport\, forensics\, and treatment\, more so for this group of contaminants than others we are more familiar with. \nThis webinar will cover the fundamentals: What are PFAS?  What is the difference between polymer PFAS and non-polymer PFAS?  How do perfluoroalkyl substances differ from polyfluoroalkyl substances?  What does it mean when we say short chain PFAS and long chain PFAS or linear PFAS and branched PFAS?  What are some of the chemical and physical properties that are unique to PFAS?  How are PFAS manufactured and why does that matter?  Can PFAS undergo transformation in the environment?  Which PFAS have been used as replacement for compounds like PFOA?  The webinar will allow ample time for questions. \nGeneral Continuing Education Certificates are awarded by the EBC for this program (1.5 training contact hours). Certificates are automatically provided via email link for registered attendees at the conclusion of the webinar.
