Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a method for degrading polybrominated diphenyl ethers. Background technique
[0002] As we all know, polybrominated diphenyl ethers are widely used as flame retardants in textiles, plastics and electronic products. In 1999, the total production of various PBDEs had exceeded 60,000 tons. They are stable to acids and bases, are not readily biodegradable, and are considered persistent organic pollutants, like PCBs. Due to their mass production and use, they have been detected in high concentrations in a variety of environmental samples, and the levels of PBDEs in human blood have increased 100-fold since 1979. Because of their possible environmental endocrine disruptor properties and neurotoxicity, their degradation and elimination work has begun to attract attention, but the research in this area has not yet been fully developed. Existing reports on the degradation of PBDE are very limited, and the literature on this aspect ca...
