The truth is, PFAS isn't new.
These compounds have been used for decades in products ranging from firefighting foams and industrial processes to stain-resistant fabrics, food packaging, and non-stick cookware. Their unique chemistry made them incredibly useful. That same chemistry also makes them incredibly persistent in the environment.
As scientists continue to learn more about PFAS, and as regulations continue to evolve, the demand for faster, more practical detection methods is growing.
At Turner Designs, we believe innovation starts with understanding the challenge. That's why we're launching our "Shining a Light on PFAS" series. We will explore the science, the challenges, and the future of PFAS detection.
Over the coming weeks, we'll discuss:
Where PFAS come from
Why they're difficult to detect
How they're impacting water resources
How the regulatory landscape is evolving
And how new technologies may help improve rapid detection.
Whether you're a researcher, utility operator, consultant, regulator, or simply interested in protecting our water resources, we invite you to follow along.
Together, let's shine a light on PFAS.
