AFFF Firefighter Foam Frequently Asked Questions
What role does AFFF foam play?
AFFF, short for Aqueous Film Forming Foam, serves as a potent fire suppressant employed by firefighters for extinguishing flammable liquid pool fires. Its effectiveness lies in the formation of a protective barrier that separates the fire from the essential oxygen needed for combustion. Since the 1960s, AFFF has gained extensive usage among airport and military firefighting personnel in tackling jet fuel and petroleum fires.
The impact of AFFF exposure, PFAS chemicals, and their effects on human health.
AFFF comprises perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS), which collectively belong to a group of synthetic chemical compounds called Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS).
Due to their persistent nature in the environment and the human body, PFAS are commonly referred to as “forever chemicals.” Recent scientific research has established a significant association between PFAS present in firefighting foam and a heightened risk of developing certain types of cancers. These cancers include kidney cancer, testicular cancer, prostate cancer, and bladder cancer.
