Abstract

A research work was carried out on effect of ionizing radiation on decomposition and aerosol formation from xylene and benzene contained in air to get information for the possibility to develop a new pollution control technology. Flow and batch systems were used in the experiments. Irradiation was mainly carried out by an electron accelerator. Gamma ray from Co-60 was also used to compare the effect of dose rate on decomposition reactions. The decomposition efficiencies of xylene and benzene by electron beam were about 70 % of those by gamma ray. The conversions of decomposed xylene and benzene to aerosols at 10 kGy by electron beam irradiation were 55 % and 30 %, respectively. While, those for gamma ray irradiation were 64 % and 56 %.
