Treatment Methods for the Remediation of Amines: A Review
Abstract:
Various organic amines, most of which both toxic and carcinogenic, are being used extensively worldwide in the syntheses of azo-dyes, polyurethane, pesticides, nylon and many other nitro-aromatics. However, the uncontrolled discharge of these products, back into the environment, releases many primary or intermediate products with similar or even worse levels of toxicity. Therefore, knowledge of the degradation and complete mineralization of these amines, using best techniques with optimum efficiency, is needed. This review is aimed at summarizing the existing studies used for the degradation of amines, employing techniques, such as; biodegradation, thermal, chemical, electrochemical, photochemical, photocatalytic, sonochemical, sono-photo catalytic and sono-ozonation processes. The reactor design for the large scale degradation with optimum efficacy has also been discussed besides attempting a structural correlation to save the environment from such chemical hazards.
