Treatment of N-Nitrosodimethylamine Contaminated Waste with Activated Carbon.
Abstract
Research on the activated carbon removal of N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) from caustic waste solutions generated during the manufacture of UDMH missile fuel is reported. Results indicate that activated carbon will remove NDMA from the caustic solutions without neutralization and three commercial activated carbons all have approximately the same capacities. Although this process is capable of reducing the NDMA concentration in the waste solutions, disposal of the contaminated carbon still remains a problem. (Authour)
