Abstract

A process for the recovery of silicone oil and chlorobenzenes from a mixture containing silicone oil, chlorobenzenes, and polychlorinated biphenyls comprising: PA1 (a) introducing the mixture into a distillation zone at a temperature and a pressure which will cause the chlorobenzenes to flash overhead and the mixture of silicone oil and polychlorinated biphenyls to pass to the bottom of the zone; and PA1 (b) removing the bottoms from step (a), cooling same, and passing the bottoms through at least one bed of activated carbon, which is an adsorbent for polychlorinated biphenyls.
