Aggregated TFA concentrations for river basins (mean values) (dataset)

For the very persistent and very mobile compound trifluoroacetate (TFA), the proven spread in the aqueous environment – here in surface waters – is shown. The concentration of TFAs from monitoring programmes of 13 federal states and four selected water utilities were established in the framework of the report “Trifluoroacetate (TFA): Creating the foundations for effective minimisation – Spatial analysis of the entry paths into the water cycle” (Runtime: August 2021-November 2022) aggregated on river basins. Here are the mean values of the TFA concentration per river basin.
