  "summary": "Newly developed palladium-coated membranes capture PFAS and use reactive hydrogen to break their carbon–fluorine bonds. During 58 days of continuous operation, the system achieved up to 96% removal and 83% defluorination. The post New Catalytic Reactive-Hydrogen Membranes Capture and Break Down PFAS appeared first on GEN - Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology News .",
