Abstract
A method for electrochemically removing halogen from a halogenated compound utilizing an electrically conducting liquid medium in an electrolytic cell is disclosed. Halogen is extracted and reacted with a metal present in the sacrificial anode to form a relatively insoluble metal halide salt. The invention is of particular utility in removing halogen from aromatic and aliphatic compounds.
