CJ Ponge publishes article in I&EC Research

CJ Ponge, in collaboration with Nathaniel P. Sheehan, David R. Corbin, Edward Peltier, Justin M Hutchison and Mark B. Shiflett, publish manuscript entitled "Zeolites for Sorption of PFAS from Water" in I&EC Research. In their study, 70 zeolites and molecular sieves with 15 different frameworks and varying pore sizes, framework compositions, and silica−alumina ratios, were tested with 24 PFAS compounds, including perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids (C4−C14), perfluoroalkanesulfonates (C4− C10), three fluorotelomer sulfonates, NMeFOSAA, FOSA, and NEtFOSAA. PFAS adsorption generally increased with increasing compound hydrophobicity and with molecular sieve ring size. Zeolites outperformed all other structures for the sorption of C4−C7 compounds.

Congratulations, CJ!
