RESEARCH GOALS
• Evaluate the role of OMPs direct photolysis at 184.9nm on their overall degradation in the VUV process
• Predict the impact of water matrix constituents (primarily dissolved organic matter and chloride) on the VUV process performance
• Elucidate the PFAS degradation with the VUV process, develop a kinetic model and validate it against the experimental data collected from bench-scale tests 
• Examine the VUV process in combination with chemical solutes (e.g. sulfite) as a means of enhancing the PFAS degradation via additional H· and e aq- generation
