Environmental persistent organic pollutants (POPs) like per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are expensive to clean up. Traditional PFAS treatment by enrichment media primarily relies on incineration after PFAS are removed from the environment, which is costly and environmentally unfriendly. The Dai’s laboratory is interested in exploring various platforms to remediate those POPs. Fungi is well known as decomposers to break down organic carbon, deposit recalcitrant carbon, and transform other elements such as nitrogen. In this presentation, the Dai lab has developed a plant-derived biomimetic material to treat PFAS contaminated water and achieved highly efficient PFAS adsorption and subsequent fungal biotransformation. As such, the material exhibits record adsorption capacity for the PFAS compounds (i.e., PFOA and PFOS) and diverse adsorption capability toward co-contaminants. Dr. Dai will also discuss the fungal bioremediation perspectives in the context of research and applications.
