Learn the difference between Gen X and PFAS (PFOA) & (PFOS): https://www.epa.gov/pfas/basic-information-pfas#difference
Gen X
What is Gen X?
GenX is a chemical used in the manufacturing of fluoropolymer resins, which are used for Teflon nonstick coatings and other purposes.
Is Gen X regulated by the EPA?
Unfortunately, there are no regulatory limits, and municipalities are not required to test for it. The Gen X compound is not regulated, so there are no standards for it, and it doesn’t get tested for in water supplies.
What are the potential health effects from long-term exposure?
These chemicals are known to be toxic. Read how it affects people and animals: https://trofire.com/2017/06/14/drinking-water-cape-fear-nc-might-deadly-dupont-blame/
What treatment methods can be effective for treating Gen X?
Gen X is a new issue and as such is still being tested for effective removal methods. Gen X cannot be boiled or evaporated out of water supplies. Due to the molecular structure of Gen X it is believed that reverse osmosis water purification can be effective at treating Gen X.
What solutions does RainDance Water Systems have to offer for Gen X, PFOA & PFOS Chemicals?
