Description: Perchlorate has been categorised as a potential contaminant and researched for years, but there are still many unknowns regarding this anion's contamination impacts. In this review, the basic information about perchlorate is summarised and evaluated, including the physical-chemical properties, fate and transportation, toxicity, analysis, and remediation. Especially, recent advances on analysis and remediation are emphasised and evaluated, such as in-situ imaging analysis and site bio-remediation respectively. The high solubility and persistence of the perchlorate anion mean its contamination is different from others, particularly in terms of analysis and remediation that might lead to secondary contamination. The knowledge gaps are listed for future research.
