PFAS Report 2022.

This report provides a comprehensive insight into the current state of knowledge about per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substrates (PFAS). Topics such as terminology, properties, manufacturing processes, applications, exposure sources and pathways, health risks, regulatory measures and perspectives for a PFAS-free future are prepared. A particular focus is on the compilation of Austrian study results, in particular on exposure. This addresses the need for national, pan-European and global regulatory restrictions of PFAS. The report was funded by the Federal Ministry for Climate Protection, Environment, Energy, Mobility, Innovation and Technology (BMK).
