Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Lindsay C Wickersham"

  • - Recent research by Lindsay C Wickersham focuses on the environmental and health impacts of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), particularly their emissions during thermal applications of fluoropolymers and combustion processes.
  • - In her 2023 study, Wickersham characterized PFAS air emissions resulting from the thermal application of fluoropolymer coatings on fabrics, highlighting the potential chemical transformations occurring at high temperatures and the need for further evaluation of these emissions.
  • - Her 2022 work involved modifying a combustion model to study the destruction efficiency of various PFAS and the formation of products from incomplete combustion, utilizing experimental data from an EPA research combustor to enhance understanding of PFAS behavior in combustion environments.
