ABSTRACT:
A method to decompose chlorofluorocarbons gases (CFCs) enables the conventional disposal of their by-products. It employs photodecomposition of the CFC gas using UV light and a mediating species to allow chemical reactions to occur which form an effluent which is hydrolyzed by conventional methods.
