Organic compound decomposing method

Abstract

Ascorbic acid and/or ascorbic acid salt is made to act together with oxygen on an organic compound. Alternatively, light radiation is applied during chemical action with oxygen so as to improve a composition efficiency of an organic compound and obtain a preferable decomposition amount. This reduces the load caused by an organic compound decomposition on the environment.

What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . An organic compound decomposing method for decomposing an organic compound using ascorbic acid and/or ascorbic acid salt.  
     
     
         2 . The organic compound decomposing method as claimed in    claim 1   , wherein the ascorbic acid and/or ascorbic acid salt is used in a form of aqueous solution thereof.  
     
     
         3 . The organic compound decomposing method as claimed in    claim 1   , wherein the organic compound has an aromatic ring.  
     
     
         4 . The organic compound decomposing method as claimed in    claim 1   , wherein at least one selected from a group consisting of hydrogen peroxide solution, ozone, ammonium, inorganic alkali, inorganic alkali salt, inorganic acid, inorganic acid salt, porphyrin, and metalloporphyrin is also used for decomposing the organic compound.  
     
     
         5 . The organic compound decomposing method as claimed in    claim 1   , wherein the decomposition is performed while applying light radiation.  
     
     
         6 . An organic compound decomposing method for decomposing a compound by using ascorbic acid and/or ascorbic acid salt together with oxygen.  
     
     
         7 . The organic compound decomposing method as claimed in    claim 6   , wherein the ascorbic acid and/or ascorbic acid salt is used in a form of an aqueous solution thereof.  
     
     
         8 . The organic compound decomposing method as claimed in    claim 6   , wherein the organic compound has an aromatic ring.  
     
     
         9 . The organic compound decomposing method as claimed in    claim 6   , wherein at least one selected from a group consisting of hydrogen peroxide solution, ozone, ammonium, inorganic alkali, inorganic alkali salt, inorganic acid, inorganic acid salt, porphyrin, and metalloporphyrin is also used for decomposing the organic compound.  
     
     
         10 . The organic compound decomposing method as claimed in    claim 6   , wherein the decomposition is performed while applying light radiation.  
     
     
         11 . An organic compound decomposing method for decomposing an organic compound by using ascorbic acid and/or ascorbic acid salt together with oxygen while applying light radiation.  
     
     
         12 . The organic compound decomposing method as claimed in    claim 11   , wherein the ascorbic acid and/or ascorbic acid salt is used in a form of aqueous solution thereof.  
     
     
         13 . The organic compound decomposing method as claimed in    claim 11   , wherein the organic compound has an aromatic ring.  
     
     
         14 . The organic compound decomposing method as claimed in    claim 11   , wherein at least one selected from a group consisting of hydrogen peroxide solution, ozone, ammonium, inorganic alkali, inorganic alkali salt, inorganic acid, inorganic acid salt, porphyrin, and metalloporphyrin is also used for decomposing the organic compound.
