In animal (and As persistent compounds, PFAS are difficult to some human) models, PFAS have been break down in our bodies and the environment. [...] Fluorine PFAS and the environment C The PFAS chemical family contains a variety of structures and properties that influence their Oxygen F behavior in the environment. [...] PFAS can be further break down to terminal Some PFAS have been found to build up in PFAS, which can be extremely persistent in the organisms and accumulate in food chains environment and in our bodies. [...] Concern was raised due to the high PFAS concentrations found in The MAC values only consider PFOA produce grown on biosolid-containing (200ng/L), PFOS (600ng/L), and 9 other PFAS agricultural land and the high level of PFAS compounds (20-30,000ng/L). [...] Wastewater Treatment Plants in Canada and PFAS Since PFAS compounds are widely used in our everyday products, they inevitably end up in wastewater treatment plants.
