These waste streams must be suitable for disposal to the environment or for reuse. Although many conventional processes are available for use in waste treatment, the nature of chemical agents invokes some special considerations and requires the use of protective measures that go beyond those of normal industrial practice.

Notably, their solubility Will be a major determinant of their acceptability for land disposal. If NaOH is used as the reactant to destroy agent, then the fully oxidized reaction products would be sodium carbonate, sodium fluoride, sodium phosphate, sodium sulfate, sodium chIonde, and sodium nitrate.

Thus, for present purposes, such systems might have to be modified to recycle the air through indirect heat exchangers, which would coo} the air, condense the bulk of the water, and recycle the dried air stream to the Slyer or send it to an afterburner. The condensed water stream would then also have to be treated as potentially contaminated and be recycled, preferably as part of the feed stream.
