Webinars & presentations

In this webinar, a report will be presented examining how PFAS-contaminated sites should be managed in Sweden, what drives action (or inaction), and how different intervention strategies affect society, the environment, and long-term risks. It combines hydrogeological modelling with socioeconomic analysis to illustrate how PFAS spreads over time and what consequences delayed action can have.

A new EmConSoil webinar series is coming! Get ready for inspiring talks, cutting-edge insights, and practical solutions from leading experts in emerging contaminants, contaminated soils and environmental sustainability. Four sessions are planned at the end of April (21st and 28th) and beginning of May (5th and 12th) 2026 each time from 9:00 till 10:00 CET. Full program is online and registations are open! 

Investigation and remediation of PFAS contaminated land in Australia has paved the way internationally, whereas other aspects of PFAS response in Australia are now lagging. The reasons for this are complex, combining social, regulatory and technical drivers and contraints. In some cases, response has been driven by key individuals, rather than official processes, and community outrage has played a critical part in the pace of response. This talk briefly discusses some examples that help to explain the different responses to PFAS in Australia versus other parts of the world.
