Reactions | Burning Forever Chemicals With Water @ACSReactions | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 1 hour ago
Forever Chemicals, also known as PFAS, are extremely useful industrial chemicals, but they can also leak into the environment, your drinking water, and your blood. And they last (practically) forever. But now chemists have a new way to destroy them: burning them with water.
