Outside Front Cover: Roadmap to Catalytic Abatement of Gas Phase Per‐ and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) (Angew. Chem. 20/2025)
The present menace: Emissions of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS)—forever chemicals—represent a risk for the environment and human health. However, mitigation strategies lack. In their Minireview (e202424718), Patrick Lott, Florian Maurer, and Arik Beck discuss a roadmap on how to tackle PFAS emission in the gas phase using catalysis. Their cover art pays tribute to the iconic movie poster of the masterpiece Star Wars Episode 1, showing a CF4 molecule shadowing its past as long-chain PFAS onto a catalyst surface.
