Only reasonable example is AFFF fire fighting foam. But realistically the amount of liquid fuel fires that you have to fight in this world probably pale in comparison with the production volumes of unnecessary anti-stick cookware and gore-tex fabrics.
- Jolter 4y agoRight, I suspected that one ... There seems to be some products on the market already: https://firestopperus.com/pfas-free-firefighting-foams/ https://firestopperus.com/pfas-free-firefighting-foams/ Hopefully they don't contain something even more toxic than PFAS?
