Abstract Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are recalcitrant and bioaccumulative environmental pollutants. Whereas substantial efforts have been made to degrade PFAS, the potential for effectively using these fluoride resources has been overlooked. Here we develop an electrothermal fluorination method to selectively fluorinate brine salts using granular activated carbon (GAC)-sorbed aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) as a fluorination agent.
