چکیده
Diiron complexes of fluorene and fluorene* (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9-nonamethylfluorene) have been found to be catalysts for the dechlorination of chlorinated aromatics, such as PCBs.

Dechlorination of Polychlorinated Biphenyls in Real Waste Transformer Oil Using a Modified Household Microwave Oven in Presence of Sodium Hydroxide and Polyethylene Glycol
This research was carried out to assess the dechlorination and decomposition of Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in the real waste transformer oil using polyethylene glycol 1000/NaOH through a modified household microwave oven. To do so, the influence of polyethylene glycol (PEG) (1.5-7.5 g) and NaOH (0.3-1.5 g) under microwave (MW) power of 500 W on the dechlorination efficiency of PCBs, exist...
متن کاملThe Comparative Photodegradation Activities of Pentachlorophenol (PCP) and Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) Using UV Alone and TiO2-Derived Photocatalysts in Methanol Soil Washing Solution
Photochemical treatment is increasingly being applied to remedy environmental problems. TiO2-derived catalysts are efficiently and widely used in photodegradation applications. The efficiency of various photochemical treatments, namely, the use of UV irradiation without catalyst or with TiO2/graphene-TiO2 photodegradation methods was determined by comparing the photodegadation of two main types...
متن کاملPolychlorinated Biphenyl Congener and Hexachlorobenzene by Vitamin B12 NADA ASSAF-ANID, LORING
The concern about synthetic chemical compounds such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and hexachlorobenzene (HCB) as a threat to living organisms (21) has fostered research on innovative treatment technologies for their destruction. Because of their hydrophobic properties, these compounds accumulate in fatty tissues of all organisms (21). In the environment, they often partition into aquatic ...
متن کاملAerobic and anaerobic PCB biodegradation in the environment.
Studies have identified two distinct biological processes capable of biotransforming polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs): aerobic oxidative processes and anaerobic reductive processes. It is now known that these two complementary activities are occurring naturally in the environment. Anaerobic PCB dechlorination, responsible for the conversion of highly chlorinated PCBs to lightly chlorinated orth...

Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) have been widely used to flame-retard products common in homes and theworkplace, and subsequently. Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) typify a class of highly toxic, stable aromaticpollutants. PCBs are recently being scrutinized for potential environment damage in groundwater and in theatmosphere. The elimination of chemical pollutants from a contaminated environm...
