ABSTRACT

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) have attracted extensive attention because of their persistence, long-distance migration ability, bioaccumulation, and biological toxicity. Currently, regulatory strategies concerning PFASs in the environment primarily focus on perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs). However, most polyfluoroalkyl compounds can be degraded to PFAAs by environmental microorganisms, also known as precursors. Exploring the microbial transformation behavior of precursors is fundamental to comprehensively evaluate the environmental risk of PFASs and formulate control and remediation schemes of PFAS-contaminated sites. Furthermore, anaerobic microbial reductive defluorination of PFAAs is a potential and challenging remediation technology. This review summarizes degradation rules and transformation pathways of precursors (fluorotelomer compounds and perfluorooctane sulfonamide derivatives), PFAAs, and novel PFASs by microorganisms and discusses factors affecting the microbial degradation. Finally, the future research directions are put forward.
