Perfluorinated compounds (PFAS) are a large family of over 9,000 chemical compounds. They are used in industrial products and consumer goods because of their non-stick, waterproofing and heat-resistant properties.
Today, these perfluorinated compounds are widespread in the environment, i.e. in soil, water and air. They persist there because they degrade only with great difficulty. As a result, PFAS are also present in the food chain.
To detect potential perfluorinated compound pollution in soils, an analysis must be carried out in a specialized laboratory.
