Not sure, but one thing I do know: sewage treatment plants aren’t distilling the water before it it gets back into service. Guessing that would be very energy intensive at scale.
I could see these chemicals being airborne and binding with rain as it condenses, rather than evaporating with it, but I simply do not know. I’m trying to build my first home and pondering somewhat radical water processing features; extreme filtration and solar distillation of rainwater being key. I’m even looking into plastic eating mushroom beds.
Can these chemicals be separated by evaporation?

Considering rain water is also filled with them? Maybe not.
