ABSTRACT:
A field method for removing polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB's) and similar halogenated aromatic hydrocarbons from silicone based oils and hydrocarbon fluids such as transformer oils contaminated with them by contacting the contaminated oil with a hydrocarbon dispersion of sodium, reacting the mixture of oil and sodium dispersion at a temperature above about 75.degree. C., and passing the treated oil through a filter medium or other separating means to remove particulate and other contaminating material.
