Chitosan-modified biochar enhanced PFAS degradation in UV/sulfite: impact of environmental conditions and applicability across different PFAS
Chi-BC significantly enhanced PFAS degradation in UV/sulfite systems, achieving defluorination rates up to 80%. The system maintains high efficiency even in a complex aqueous solution matrix including NOM, increased ionic strength, and nitrate.
