Research Report "Latest Industry Technologies for PFAS Removal, Separation, Decomposition, and Treatment Worldwide"

■Title: "Latest Regulatory Trends and Requirements for Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS)" ―― PFAS responses cannot be dismissed with "I didn't know." Systematically organizing the latest developments such as the POPs Treaty, European PFAS restriction proposals, and state regulations in the United States. Providing specific explanations on practical responses that companies should take! ■Date and Time: April 16, 2026 (Thursday) 13:30 – 16:30 ■Target Audience for the Seminar Individuals in quality control, production, and development departments of various companies who wish to obtain the current status and latest information on PFAS regulations. ■Knowledge Gained from the Seminar - Basic properties and applications of PFAS - PFAS regulations and the latest developments in the UN, Europe, and the United States - Current status of chemical analysis related to PFAS - Past movements regarding mandatory measures for companies - Initiatives for PFAS management within companies

■Title: "Fluorine-Free Water and Oil Repellent Treatment Technology Achievable - Guidelines and Examples for Surface Design to Improve Wetting Fundamentals and Liquid Sliding Properties" As PFAS regulations accelerate, surface designs that achieve water and oil repellency without fluorine are gaining attention. This seminar will systematically explain the fundamentals of wetting, dynamic wettability evaluation, design guidelines for improving sliding properties, and the latest examples of fluorine-free surface treatments by leading researchers. ■Date and Time: April 14, 2026 (Tuesday) 13:30 - 16:30 ■Target Audience for the Seminar - Individuals engaged in surface treatment and modification operations - Those involved in research and development related to imparting water and oil repellency, stain resistance, and anti-adhesion properties to various substrate surfaces - Individuals engaged in research and development of fluorine (PFAS) alternative technologies and fluorine-free surface treatment and modification technologies ■Knowledge Gained from the Seminar - Fundamental knowledge/theory regarding wettability - Correct knowledge of wettability evaluation techniques (static/dynamic contact angle, contact angle hysteresis, sliding/falling angle) - Know-how for creating surfaces/interfaces with excellent water and oil repellency, stain resistance, and anti-adhesion properties without fluorine
