Abstract:A promising photolysis based technology to dechlorinate polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), extracted from soils, in alkaline isopropanol (IPA) as reaction medium has been proposed. To be marketable the impact of co-contaminants extracted along with the PCBs, on the photodechlorination process needs investigation. In this paper the effectiveness of the photodeclorination process on PCBs extracted from samples of a representative soil containing co-contaminants is reported. The photodechlorination of PCBs extract… Show more
