Abstract
The degradation of compounds contained in a liquid or solid waste stream is described. The invention provides a system that can be operated economically on a commercial scale that is capable of handling diverse waste streams without significant inhibition of the degradation process. The system involves the use of a semi-permeable membrane partition and pressure to drive reactants into a waste stream.
