| Abstract |
Destruction measures discussed are photolysis, microbiological techniques, incineration (land-based, at-sea), chemical methods (alkaline dehydrochlorination, catalytic reduction with iron chlorides, catalytic oxidation with ruthenium tetroxide, micellar catalysis with chloroiodides, chlorolysis), landfill. Alternative manufacturing processes for 2,4,5-trichlorophenol are discussed on account of the risk of reactor explosions. |
