Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Debra Kantner"
- Debra Kantner's recent research focuses on the treatment of per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) within combustion-based thermal waste systems, particularly in the United States.
- Her latest article, published in July 2024, examines the challenges associated with the destruction of PFAS due to the strong carbon-fluorine (C-F) bonds that characterize these chemicals.
- Kantner emphasizes that thermal treatment methods, like incineration, are recognized as effective ways to manage many halogenated organic compounds, but the specific challenges posed by PFAS treatment require ongoing investigation and innovation.
