WHAT IS PFAS? ‘When it comes to PFAS there is actually no safe level!’ Following the discoveries of PFAS, experts have issued a scathing assessment of the guidelines in place for Australia’s drinking water quality.International Pollutants Elimination Network senior policy adviser Dr Mariann Lloyd-Smith said Australia is falling behind other countries in drinking water safety. Even in the US, the laws are far more restrictive than Australia’s..
“Australian standards … are out of date, out of touch and totally are not usable for protecting human health,” Dr Lloyd-Smith told ABC radio.“We really do need to move on these chemicals quickly. And particularly when it’s in drinking water, something that everybody has to consume. It just is totally unacceptable.”
The University of Sydney medicine and health faculty’s Nick Chartres said PFAS are “the most mobile, persistent and toxic chemicals in the world”. He said the US Environmental Protection Agency found “based on the best available evidence that we have … there is actually no safe level (of exposure to PFAS)”.“So if you get exposed across a lifetime, at any level, your risk of these diseases starts going up incrementally based on the level of exposure,” Dr Chartres said.

microplastics & pfas?
Microplastics (mps) are tiny plastic particles ranging from 5 millimeters to 1 nanometers, originating from products like personal care items and the degradation of larger plastic pieces. They pose potential health risks, including gastrointestinal irritation and respiratory problems, and can carry toxic contaminants. Detecting and managing mps in water is challenging, but conventional and emerging water treatment technologies show promise in removing most mps.
Protection Beyond Standard Filtration
Reverse osmosis is your only practical option against the dangers of pfas and microplastics in your drinking water. Carbon block filtration has limited success at removing mps & pfas in our water. Furthermore, given the close proximity of ro units to the point of use there is no possibility of the threat of bacteria or mould forming.
