Assessing aerobic biotransformation of 8: 2 fluorotelomer alcohol in aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF)-impacted soils: Pathways and microbial community dynamics
Abstract Production of 8: 2 fluorotelomer alcohol (8: 2 FTOH) for industrial and consumer
products, including aqueous film-forming foams (AFFFs) used for firefighting, has resulted in
its widespread occurrence in the environment. However, the fate of 8: 2 FTOH at AFFF-
impacted sites remains largely unknown. Using AFFF-impacted soils from two United States
Air Force Bases, microcosm experiments evaluated the aerobic biotransformation of 8: 2
FTOH (extent and byproduct formation) and the dose-response on microbial communities …
