PFAS and Biosolids – A Dynamic Regulatory Puzzle
The high nutrient content of biosolids makes them valuable for fertilizing agricultural land and for use in commercial soil amendments. Concerns around per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in biosolids have spurred new controls around the production, use and sale of these products. This blog takes a look at the current status of the issue.
