Now granted this is a paywalled article and I don't know if they are claiming some sort of effect that can work with AC current, but as far as electrolysis goes, it requires DC current, with a ...

When water flows across the material, the piezoelectric effect generates electrical charges. This triggers reduction and oxidation reactions that gradually degrade PFAS into their harmless compounds.

Materials exhibiting the piezoelectric effect can be natural, such as quartz, or synthetically made, like lead zirconate titanate (PZT) and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF). Applications in Medical ...

New material is the first binary-blended PLA multilayer film with piezoelectric performance that exceeds that of industry-standard lead zirconate titanate (PZT). Teijin’s New Films Development ...
