2026 PFAS and Emerging Environmental Contaminants

Strengthen your PFAS analysis with practical strategies to address complex environmental challenges.
Event Overview
This two-day online symposium explores the latest developments in the detection, analysis, behavior, and environmental impact of PFAS and other emerging contaminants. The program will highlight current research, analytical advances, monitoring strategies, and regulatory challenges, with a particular focus on the evolving approaches needed to understand and manage these persistent and complex pollutants. The symposium will provide an opportunity to share research findings and discuss emerging challenges.
Dates:
- Day 1: Wednesday, 11 November
