[Utilization of detoxification products of yperite-lewisite mixtures]. / Utilizatsiia produktov detoksikatsii ipritno-liuizitnoi smesi.

An approach to developing an ecologically safe technology for disposal of yperite-lewisite mixtures has been developed. The technology includes three sequential stages: (1) detoxification by alkaline hydrolysis (resulting in the loss of toxic properties); (2) electrochemical treatment of detoxification products (electrocoagulation, to eliminate arsenic salts, and electrochemical oxidation, to convert all organic components into bioutilizable matter); and (3) degradation of the compounds obtained at the two preceding stages by a bred microbial association.
