This webinar digest delves into the critical issue of emerging contaminants in groundwater, focusing on heavy metals, PFAS, and microplastics. It examines their sources, environmental persistence, and potential health impacts. The project emphasizes innovative solutions for groundwater sampling and purification. The Sartolab® P20 plus inline filters are designed to assist with groundwater sampling, while the Sartorius water purification systems (Arium® systems) are capable of purifying tap or pretreated water, effectively reducing PFAS and microplastic levels below the limit of detection.
What you will learn about:
- Sources and impacts of groundwater contamination
- Challenges in sample collection
- Innovations in filtration and purification technology
- Importance of regulatory compliance in water quality
- Role of advanced water systems in research accuracy

More Information
Emerging contaminants in groundwater, such as heavy metals, PFAS, and microplastics, pose significant environmental and health risks. Heavy metals like lead and mercury are toxic at low concentrations and can accumulate in living organisms, leading to serious health issues. PFAS, used in various industrial applications, are persistent in the environment and can accumulate in the human body, potentially causing adverse health effects. Microplastics, originating from plastic debris, are pervasive in ecosystems and can be ingested by wildlife and humans. Traditional groundwater sampling and filtration methods are cumbersome and prone to contamination, necessitating advanced solutions for accurate analysis and mitigation.
