Title: Chemical agents for conversion of chrysotile asbestos into non-hazardous materials

Full Record
Other Related Research

Abstract

A composition and methods for converting a chrysotile asbestos-containing material to a non-regulated environmentally benign solid which comprises a fluoro acid decomposing agent capable of dissociating the chrysotile asbestos to non-regulated components, wherein non-regulated components are non-reactive with the environment, and a binding agent which binds the non-regulated components to form an environmentally benign solid.

Conversion of hazardous materials using supercritical water oxidation

Patent Rofer, Cheryl K [Los Alamos, NM]; Buelow, Steven J [Los Alamos, NM]; Dyer, Richard B [Los Alamos, NM]; ...

A process for destruction of hazardous materials in a medium of supercritical water without the addition of an oxidant material. The harzardous material is converted to simple compounds which are relatively benign or easily treatable to yield materials which can be discharged into the environment. Treatment agents may be added to the reactants in order to bind certain materials, such as chlorine, in the form of salts or to otherwise facilitate the destruction reactions.
