全氟和多氟烷基物质（PFAS）污染的饮用水对全国各地的社区构成健康风险。美国绝大多数的供水系统都缺乏过滤PFAS的技术和资金。PFAS随工业废水从各种设施中释放是PFAS污染饮用水的重要因素。在这里，我们提供了一个筛选级分析的潜在环境PFAS释放从污染的网站，活跃的工业场所，废水处理厂，和废物处置场（包括活跃和不活跃的垃圾填埋场）全国。通过对美国密歇根州和加州州的具体案例研究，我们研究了测试如何识别大量不同的PFAS来源。测试结果旁边的潜在来源列表可以用来通知国家或地方一级的调查，以及在污水指南和工业预处理programmes.Article援助的发展影响StatementThe点源的识别和建立全和多氟烷基物质（PFAS）污水指南可以帮助减轻饮用水的PFAS污染。
Drinking water contamination with per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) poses a health risk for communities across the country. The vast majority of the water systems across the United States lack both the technology and the funds to filter out PFAS. Release of PFAS with industrial wastewater from a variety of facilities is a significant contributor to PFAS contamination of drinking water. Here, we provide a screening-level analysis of the potential for environmental PFAS releases from contaminated sites, active industrial sites, wastewater treatment plants, and waste disposal sites (including active and inactive landfills) nationwide. With specific case studies from the US states of Michigan and California, we examine how testing has identified a large number of diverse PFAS sources. Testing results alongside the list of potential sources can be used to inform state- or local-level investigations as well as aid in the development of effluent guidelines and industrial pretreatment programs.Article Impact StatementThe identification of point sources and establishing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) effluent guidelines can help mitigate the PFAS contamination of drinking water.
