The feasibility of cleaning PCB contaminated solids via a solvent extraction route was studied, using the cleanup of the dried sludge from the Winston-Thomas tertiaty lagoon as a test problem. 

On the basis of desorption diaracteristics determined from bench-scale experiments, the economics of cleanup of Winston-Thomas tertiary lagoon sludge via solvent extraction route and direct incineration are compared. The fractionation unit is the single most important unit in the solvent extraction process. A clever design of this unit will have a significant impact on the economics of the cleanup via solvent extraction route.

Military appreciation of chemical weapons varied considerably. In September 1914, Lieutenant-General the Earl of Dundonald apprised Lord Kitchener of the various plans left by his grandfather. Admiral Sir Thomas Cochrane, for the use of sulphur dioxide clouds to drive an enemy from a fortified position. Kitchener at once discounted them as did Admiral Sir Arthur Wilson. Only Winston Churchill s imaginative interest kept the scheme alive, and eventually a modified version of Cochrane s proposal was put into practice, not as lethal gas clouds but as naval smoke screens. Even when line officers returned from France and inquired about the possibility of using stink bombs to dear enemy dug-outs, the response was unfavourable. Some lachrymatory substances were examined at the Imperial College of Sdence, and, unoffidally, stink bombs were offered to Sir John French in case the enemy resorted to similar methods. The Commander-in-Chief brusquely rejected the offer. ...
