Abstract

See full text

This is disclosed a process for the decomposition of halogenated hydrocarbons including polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) and chlorinated pesticides, as DDT and DDE. The process comprises microwave-mediated wet-ashing of the halogenated hydrocarbons(s) in controlled conditions to avoid an emission of noxious fumes from the reaction mixture. Preferably, the wet-ashing reagent is a 1:1 mixture of nitric acid and sulfuric acid.
