dechlorinate

The RGM Mycobacterium obuense, an environmental pigmented mycobacterium, is mobile and easily adaptable to the environment and possesses oxygenases that enable it to degrade organic compounds and dechlorinate methoxychlor-based insecticides (2).

Marburg (DSM 2133) (which has since been reclassified as Methanothermobacter marburgensis [146]), and Methanothrix soehngenii (DSM 2139) dechlorinate 1,2-dichloroethane through dihaloelimination to the product ethylene and through hydrogenolysis to chloroethane [147].

Further changes in reaction conditions (temperature, reaction time, and alkali concentration) could not dechlorinate more DDT.

To dechlorinate water, allow it to sit for 24 hours, adding a few tablespoons unsulphured molasses.

Unless you dechlorinate your water, you are exposed to thyroid-lowering gases whenever you bathe, shower, or have a drink of water.

It is difficult to dechlorinate PCBs in transformer oil directly.

"Fortunately, these are unstable compounds, especially in the presence of sulfite, which is sometimes used to dechlorinate treated water, so they are unlikely to persist long in the environment," Bedner says.

Processes not required to dechlorinate effluent to zero level can use a "feedback" control system where TRC monitoring at a point downstream of dechlorinating agent addition signals--along with flow-rate data--the sulfonator for dosage adjustment.

to dechlorinate," says the director of maintenance for the indoor pool at the Lake County Family YMCA Central Branch in Vernon Hills, Ill.

"We'll usually say to dechlorinate the pool, test for copper, make sure a lot of algaecides haven't been added, then discharge into the storm drain system--with the local agency there," Bobel says.
