Just Have a Think | Taking the 'fossil fuels' out of fuel cells. Revolutionary new technology. @JustHaveaThink | Uploaded October 2023 | Updated October 2024, 11 hours ago.
PFAS, or 'Forever Chemicals', are found in all sorts of everyday products, from non-stick pans to stain resistant carpets and fire fighting foams. They're also used to make separator membranes in billions of fuel cells, batteries and other devices.

Now a Swedish start-up has perfected a commercial product that could go a long way to achieving that goal.
