Tenders Are Invited For Environmental Services - Contract Regarding Partnerships With Business For Phasing Out And Minimizing Pfas In Denmark

Environmental Services - Contract Regarding Partnerships With Business For Phasing Out And Minimizing Pfas In Denmark. Pfas Is Used In Many Industrial Processes And Products Due To The Unique Properties Of The Substances, Such As Water And Fat Rejection, Friction-Reducing And High Temperature And Chemical Resistance. However, These Properties Also Make Pfas A Serious Environmental And Health Risk As They Are Persistent In Nature And Can Accumulate In Humans And Animals. Since Some Industries Cannot Immediately Phase Out Pfas, There Is A Need For Partnerships Where Companies, Authorities And Experts Can Work Together To Identify General Alternatives, Technical Solutions, Minimize Use And Resulting Emissions And Ensure Responsible Handling. The Partnerships Must Thus Help Identify Applications, Find Solutions And Cases With Best-Practice, And Explore A Practice Of Transitioning To A More Pfas-Free Production. Concrete Development And Implementation Of Alternatives Or Alternative Technical Solutions Is Outside The Task And Is Financed By Interested Participating Companies.
