This report describes novel results concerning the chemistry and microbiology of quadracyclane (QC) and dinitramide (DN). No results are presented for peffluoropolyethers, since they were found to be intractable, and therefore resistant to degradation under our experimental conditions.
In order to develop an effective hydrazine remediation technique, the environmental fate and transport of its breakdown products must be identified and quantified. Hydrazine and methyl hydrazine auto-oxidation were studied in the presence of colloidial hematite, a common soil mineral. It was found that auto-ozidation in the presence of the hematite was attenuated when compared to auto-ozidation in water only. This indicates that the interaction between the hydrazines and the ...
