I haven't had a chance to access the paper yet, but here's the reference:

(36) Kundu, S. K.; Patel, S.; Halder, P.; Patel, T.; Hedayati Marzbali, M.; Pramanik, B. K.; Paz-Ferreiro, J.; de Figueiredo, C. C.; Bergmann, D.; Surapaneni, A. Removal of PFAS from Biosolids by a Semi-Pilot Scale Pyrolysis Reactor and the Application of Biosolids Derived Biochar for the Removal of PFAS from Contaminated Water. Environ. Sci. Water Res. Technol. 2021, 7, 638.

This seems to be an adsorption paper however.

I have written in this space about decomposition of PFAS, an issue that is on my mind quite a bit. Here's a relatively recent example.

A Nice Scientific Review Article on the Destruction of Persistant Perfluoroorganic Pollutants.

As for me, I think I have a hammer, and thus every problem is a nail, I favor radiolysis as an approach both for water and air (CFCs HFCs) for destroying fluorinated compounds.
