Explanation:
Rewriting the sentence is better grammatically:

(Sedan det framkommit) att PFOS har mycket allvarliga konsekvenser för hälsa och miljö så pågår en utfasning av PFOS-relaterade ämnen.

...that PFOS are toxic to both humans and the environment, the use of PFOS-related compounds/substances is being phased out.

Example sentence(s):
