Transformative solutions for PFAS pollution
91µ¼º½ PFAS+ Initiative
The 91µ¼º½ PFAS+ is a multi-disciplinary initiative that focuses on the emerging PFAS pollution crisis and its cascading environmental and societal impacts. The plus sign indicates the breadth of the impacts that PFAS has on society, other emerging environmental pollutants, as well as the transformative and novel approach that U91µ¼º½ realizes.
Vision
To mitigate the PFAS crisis and its consequences safely and sustainably in 91µ¼º½ and beyond.
Mission
To address through research and development the multifaceted challenges posed by PFAS pollution.
Purpose
Strategic planning of PFAS mitigation efforts, coordination of high quality PFAS analysis and conducting cutting edge research that is driven by federal and state agencies, 91µ¼º½ researchers and impacted stakeholders. The long-term goals of the initiative are to unravel PFAS pollution pathways, and develop safe and sustainable mitigation approaches involving new materials, devices, technologies, processes for food, water and environmental safety. The initiative also aspires to create transparent PFAS communication framework to minimize public health hazards.
