Project summary

The health impact of chemicals present in everyday products is a concern. The European Green Deal includes the commitment to a zero-pollution action plan for a toxic-free environment. In this context, the EU-funded SCENARIOS project will develop a set of technological solutions to address the detection, (bio)monitoring, long-term toxicity, risk assessment, pollution control and remediation of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances – a diverse group of man-made chemicals used in a range of consumer and industrial products. The project will employ a self-sustainable and (near) net-zero energy approach, which will smoothly integrate into the circular economies of EU countries and worldwide. In addition to filling the knowledge gap, SCENARIOS will deliver disruptive remediation for even the most toxic class of contaminants.
