Phosphate-enabled mechanochemical PFAS destruction for fluoride reuse

Nature, Published online: 26 March 2025; doi:10.1038/s41586-025-08698-5This study highlights a protocol that converts various perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), including fluoroplastics, into valuable fluorochemicals through a solvent-free mechanochemical process, thereby enabling fluorine recovery and contributing to a sustainable circular fluorine economy.
