The highest PFAS congeners detected in textile was 6:2 diPAP with 30,178 ng/g in a hijab; The highest PFAS congeners detected in paper was 6:2 diPAP with 2,043 ng/g in an imported microwaveable popcorn bag; Both samples of microwaveable popcorn bags from Indonesia and the USA contained 6:2 FTOH, PFHxA, and PFBA; and The most frequently detected PFASs congeners were 6:2 FTOH, PFHxA, PFOA, PFHpA and PFBA, PFDA and PFDoA. INDONESIA REGULATIONS Ministry of Agriculture Prohibited active ingredients and additives for pesticides (PFOS) National Standardization Agency (BSN) Textile standard testing on PFOS and PFOA Ministry of Industry Textile industry have to verity PFOS content information Ministry of Trade Standard on PFOS and PFOA in textiles By the time this study is being conducted, no national agencies in Indonesia have any program for environmental monitoring of PFOS or human biomonitoring or monitoring in products. RESEARCH COLLABORATION 2021 10 Winter Gloves Winter Gloves 10 5 Gloves, Hijab, Sport Trouser HIGHLIGHT OF FINDINGS All analysed samples of product contained PFAS; 4 types of PFAS congeners found in samples tested in this study are 8:2 FTOH, 6:2 diPAP, 6:2/8:2 diPAP, and 12:2 FTOH. 21 out of 25 samples (84 %) of the analysed contained 8:2 FTOH. The highest PFAS congeners detected in all samples was 6:2 diPAP with 30,178 ng/g from Indonesia - Hijab. The highest PFAS congeners detected in China was 6:2 FTOH with 129 ng/g in Winter Gloves. The highest PFAS congeners detected in Russia was 6:2 FTOH with 1,790 ng/g in Winter Gloves. DISCUSSIONS XY PFAS congeners is expected to be present in the samples. The number of identified congeners is limited by availability of analytic standards. Moreover, FTOH-based side-chain fluorinated polymers are not detectable by used analytical method (but can be expected in the samples as per presence of FTOH INTERNATIONAL REGULATIONS The Stockholm Convention PFOS to its global restriction list in 2009 and PFOA to its list for global elimination in 2019. Outside the provisions of the Stockholm Convention, Indonesia and Russia have not adopted any additional regulatory control over PFAS. China PFOS, its salts and PFOSF (perfluorooctanesulfonyl fluoride) were listed on the List of Priority Control Chemicals in 2017 and is on the List of Strictly Restricted Toxic and Hazardous Chemicals. PFOA and its salts were listed on the List of Priority Control Chemicals in 2020. RECOMMENDATIONS (1/2) For industries Stop the use of PFAS ingredients in new products Disclose PFAS content in products with clear warning signs/labels/icons on the products Companies that have shifted to fluorinefree alternatives should get their products certified through independent, third party verification procedures For all stakeholders Come together and unite in promoting and alerting the public about the hidden pollution and harms posed by PFAS substances Support and implement a strong policy to eliminate PFAS in Indonesia. RECOMMENDATIONS (2/2) Significantly increase efforts towards transitioning to safe, nonPFAS alternatives, including establishing ambitious deadlines for phasing out PFAS as a class for all uses not essential for the functioning of society. Significantly increase availability of information to support this effort, including analytical methods, hazard data for PFAS and information about non-PFAS alternatives. Work towards full transparency of PFAS content in products and support consumers' right to know and choose PFAS-free products. PFAS Situation Report: Indonesia la 4644 a 4.g0ip611s e. saps alkyls et BALIFOKUS 'OPNEXUS3 etc.-es f ea fat, a April 2019 THANK YOU!
