Hi I'm a chemist, my current work is with PFAS compounds, often known as forever chemicals. Please ask me about those, or anything else you are curious about related to chemistry. I will try to give you a solid response.

Which companies doing work in this field do you have the most confidence in? Is BioLargo even a contender? I've seen a lot of talk about them in "green" stock circles and their claim is to have a product in the testing phase that removes PFAs from water. I'm mostly curious if it's just marketing or if they're a serious name in the industry.
And this one's probably more relevant to your expertise... have you read about the PFA situation in North Carolina? How fucked are the people living in the affected areas? What are their chances of ever getting potable well water again?
Second question: its not as bad as lead but still pretty bad. It's hard to say exactly.
I have never heard of BioLargo, but I don't do much on that side. It isn't impossible or completely infeasible to filter PFAs, I am very familiar with some of that work. I'm having trouble finding any real details on their site, so I'm hesitant to say anything further. I would err on the side of caution as I am unable to find any publications from the company or real technical details.
