Abstract
  • Disposal of chlorinated hydrocarbons is a major environmental concern due to the lack of a satisfactory means of safe remediation at all contaminated locations. Current technologies rely primarily on incineration, a process that can lead to dangerous byproducts such as dioxin. If the chlorine substituent can be removed prior to incineration, or other disposal method, the subsequent steps of disposal pose less of an environmentally risk. The catalyst developed in this study is designed to promote the dechlorination reaction. A methodology for the production of a palladium based metal support catalyst is presented. This technique allows the palladium catalyst to be deposited on a copper metal surface. The catalyst is active in the dechlorination of p-chlorophenol, which is used as model molecule representing a range of chlorinated phenolic compounds. Hydrogen is used in the concert with catalyst to affect the dechlorination. Chemical process rates of 0.3-1.0 cm³/g*s are observed.
