The thermolysis of hexachlorane in a flowing precipitator system in an inert gas atmosphere was studied. To process the obtained kinetic data a stationary model of a piston reactor with an arbitrary number of sequential and parallel heterogeneous reactions proceeding in a mixed diffusion-kinetic regime was used. Based on the results of the solution of the inverse problem the mechanism of the process and its kinetic parameters have been established. The results of the work can be used in the reprocessing of obsolete and banned pesticide preparations.
The work was carried out under the project "Development of technology for creating mobile means for destruction of obsolete and banned pesticides". The authors propose a set of methods to solve the problem of effective destruction of obsolete pesticides. This complex includes a combination of thermal, oxidizing and reducing effects. The proposed technical solutions are oriented to the design of mobile plants for pesticide recycling and reclamation of adjacent territories. As characteristic examples, the results of laboratory studies of granosan recycling, as well as the result of thermodynamic and kinetic study of thermolysis of hexachlorocyclohexane are presented.
