RESUMO
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), comprising over 9,000 persistent synthetic organic contaminants, are extensively found in the environment and pose significant risks to both human and ecological health. Among the strategies for addressing PFAS contamination, adsorption processes have proven to be cost-effective. Traditional sorbents such as ion-exchange resins and activated carbon have been found to exhibit low adsorption capacities and slow equilibration times. Recent innovations in porous materials, including metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent organic frameworks (COFs), and porous organic polymers (POPs), however, offer significant improvements in the efficiency of PFAS adsorption. This review thoroughly examines the latest advancements in these materials, analyzing their mechanisms of adsorption, and concludes by suggesting directions for future research that could further enhance their effectiveness in PFAS management.
