A process for degrading hypochlorite waste and lithium hypochlorite solutions is described. It uses a cobalt oxide/molybdenum oxide catalyst formed from about 1-10 w/w cobalt oxide and 1-15 w/w % molybdenum oxide disposed on a suitable substrate. The major advantage of the catalyst lies in its high degree of effectiveness and its very low cost.
