Ellis et al. (2004) and Wallington et al. (2006b) have suggested that the oxidation of fluorotelomer alcohols ( -CjcF2j +iCH2CH20H, where x = 2,4, 6, 8,...) is a likely source of the perfluorocarboxylic acid pollution observed in remote locations (Martin et al. 2004). Prevedouros et al. (2006) and Wania (2007) estimate that oceanic transport is the dominant mechanism by which perfluorocarboxylic acids get to the Arctic Ocean. Yarwood et al. (2007) presented the results of a modelling study which suggest that the atmospheric oxidation of fluorotelomer alcohols contributes only 1-2% of... [Pg.257]
