Abstract
A system for removing contaminants from a solution is provided. A supply tank holds the contaminated solution and a reactor containing a catalyst receives the contaminated solution from the supply tank and further receives hydrogen for reacting with the catalyst and contaminants for removal thereof. The system is applicable to both aqueous and non-aqueous streams contaminated with chlorinated hydrocarbon and the like. Furthermore, the hydrogen for the system may be produced in situ.
