On Using Hydrogenation Processes for Creating CW Destruction Technology

Abstract

Hydrogen participating thermal and catalytic processes are used extensively in petroleum-processing and chemical industries. Large-tonnage processes of oil fraction hydrodesulphurization, alkyl aromatic hydrocarbon hydrodealkylation, and vegetable fat hydrogenation are relevant in this context. This is why hydrogenation processes (HP) have attracted the attention of researchers dealing with the destruction of highly toxic substances. The outlook of this trend is evaluated in this report based on the experience of chemical and petroleum-processing industries with regard to HP used, on modern concepts concerning the kinetics and mechanisms of the processes, as well as accounting for the results of HP application to the destruction of supertoxins.
