根因分析
PFAS（全氟和多氟烷基物质）具有热稳定性，在沸点（100°C）下不会降解；煮沸实际上通过蒸发水来浓缩PFAS。瓶装水也可能因水源污染或塑料浸出而含有PFAS；只有经过NSF/ANSI 53或P473认证的特定过滤（活性炭、反渗透、离子交换）才能降低PFAS水平
English
PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are heat-stable and do not degrade at boiling point (100°C); boiling actually concentrates PFAS by evaporating water. Bottled water may also contain PFAS from source contamination or plastic leaching; only specific filtration (activated carbon, reverse osmosis, ion exchange) certified to NSF/ANSI 53 or P473 reduces PFAS levels

-
安装经NSF/ANSI 53认证用于PFAS减少的滤水器（例如活性炭块）或NSF/ANSI 58反渗透系统。查看当地水务公司的PFAS测试结果。对于即时行动，使用符合NSF标准的认证壶式过滤器，如Brita或ZeroWater。
-
联系当地水务公司获取PFAS测试结果并遵循其建议。如果使用瓶装水，选择发布第三方PFAS测试的品牌（例如许多泉水品牌）。
无效尝试
常见但无效的做法:
-
Boil tap water for 10 minutes to remove PFAS
95% 失败
PFAS are thermally stable; boiling does not break them down and may increase concentration due to evaporation
-
Switch to bottled water without checking the brand's PFAS testing
70% 失败
Many bottled water brands use municipal tap water or sources with PFAS; plastic bottles can also leach PFAS; only brands with certified testing are safer
