Comparative extraction approaches and sum parameter analysis by combustion ion chromatography (CIC) N2 - Besides classical per- and polyfluorinated alkylated substances (PFAS), side-chain fluorinated polymers (SFPs) are widely applied as efficient anti-wetting and anti-greasing coatings in various daily applicated consumer products such as outdoor apparel, carpetry or paper-based food contact materials. Although the fluorinated sidechains are chemically bound to a base polymer, their release can be triggered by environmental influences or wear-off, thus contribute as significant sources of PFAS in the environment. Since only little knowledge of PFAS and SFP composition in consumer products is available, a comprehensive analytical approach might be beneficial.

Für Antimon, Chrom, Kupfer, Molybdän und Vanadium werden in der neuen Ersatzbaustoffverordnung Eluatgrenzwerte für die Verwertung festgelegt. Aschen und Schlacken werden aus der Abfallverbrennungsanlage nass ausgetragen und vor einer Verwertung in der Regel mehrere Wochen gelagert. Dabei finden hydraulische Reaktionen statt und enthaltenes CaO wird zu einem Großteil in Calciumcarbonat umgewandelt. Während wässrige Eluate von frischen Aschen pH-Werte von 12 und höher aufweisen, sind die Eluate nach einigen Wochen weniger stark alkalisch. Die gemessenen Schwermetallkonzentrationen sind daher dann auch deutlich niedriger, mit Ausnahme von Antimon (Sb) und Vanadium (V). Hier steigen die Konzentration mit der Lagerungsdauer. Grund sind sinkende Konzentrationen von Ca-Ionen, die sonst zu einer Ausfällung von Antimonaten und Vanadaten führen. Zu hohe Eluatwerte von Sb und V können durch Sorption an Eisenoxidverbindungen gemindert werden. Als besonders wirkungsvoll hat sich Schwertmannit (Eisen-Oxyhydroxysulfat) erwiesen. Es entsteht durch Oxidation von pyrithaltigem Material durch Mikroorganismen und wird deshalb in Gebieten gefunden, in denen Braunkohle abgebaut wurde, z.B. in der Lausitz. Weitere untersuchte Eisenoxidverbindungen waren Hämatit und Schlämme aus der Abtrennung von Eisen und Mangan in Wasserwerken. T2 - 5.

Beside through the use of these substances, they contribute to the PFAS background in the environment through (environmental/ bio-) degradation and incomplete destruction3 of PFAS with longer carbon chains or other fluorinated compounds. As part of the German-Israeli Cooperation in Water Technology Research project „Detection, quantification, and treatment of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances in groundwater“ (DEFEAT-PFAS), we are developing an as simple as possible direct headspace (HS-)GC-MS method to detect trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) and perfluoropropanioc acid (PFPrA), as well as trifluoroethanol (TFEtOH), pentafluoropropanol(PFPrOH) and hexafluoroiospropanol (HFIP) in water samples. Here we present the results of the PFAS mentioned in spiked ultrapure water solutions.

Their chemical structures exhibit both lipophilic and hydrophilic properties, leading to a highly inert and persistent character. Various PFASs have shown to be bioaccumulative in plants and animals, and some have been characterized as highly toxic when ingested. When exposed to the environment, PFASs slowly get mobilized by natural water resources, leading to contamination of large areas of soil and natural water sources. While PFASs contamination of drinking water has been investigated intensively, perfluoralkyl contamination of soils has been rarely examined as of yet. At the same time, an increasing amount of PFASs contamination sites are being discovered worldwide, calling for a sophisticated strategy towards analytical characterization. Since the number of known PFASs already exceeds 4700, the established sum parameters like extractable organic fluorine (EOF) and adsorbable organic fluorine (AOF) are key elements to fully survey the impact of exposure. Simultaneously, innovative soil remediation strategies are required to contain environmental destruction and to minimize further spreading of contaminants. Addressing these challenges requires suitable analytical devices that are capable of mobilizing PFASs in the solid as well as in the liquid phase. The use of combustion ion chromatography (CIC) enables analysis of both immobile and volatile PFASs and allows the detection of both total fluorine (TF) and EOF or AOF of a given soil or aqueous sample. Based on preliminary results, the clean-up of a PFAS contaminated solid matrix is monitored via EOF detection over time. Additionally, we demonstrate the pH dependency of hydrogen fluoride absorption on active carbon (AC) and found a simple organic additive to be an effective fluoride scavenger. The presented findings can be contributive with regard to future AOF/EOF sum parameter development and application.
