Zwijndrecht, a Flemish town near Antwerp, faces severe pollution issues due to PFAS from the 3M chemical plant. Despite a €571 million remediation agreement with the Flemish government, residents like Jeroen Van Reeth are still waiting for cleanup efforts. PFAS, known as 'forever chemicals', pose health risks and are difficult to eliminate. Various techniques exist for containing and destroying PFAS, but challenges remain, including the high costs and environmental risks associated with current methods.
