Gerardu, Th. (author), Dijkstra, J.J. (author), Beeltje, H. (author), van Renesse van Duivenbode, J.A.D. (author)PFOA and PFOS are widely found PFAS components in Dutch topsoils. PFOA was emitted to the atmosphere during 1970-2012 from a fluoropolymers factory, and was deposited mainly within a radius of 50 km. For the first time, detailed concentration-depth profiles of PFOA and PFOS were measured in undisturbed soils down wind of the factory. Three...article 2023

Met de ambities in het Klimaatakkoord koerste Nederland af op ongeveer 75 procent hernieuwbare elektriciteitsproductie in 2030. Daarmee lijkt een klimaatneutrale elektriciteitsvoorziening in 2040 binnen handbereik. Dat zou bovendien sterk...report 2023
