Hazardous air pollutants, also known as toxic air pollutants or air toxics, are those pollutants that cause or may cause cancer or other serious health effects, such as reproductive effects or birth defects, or adverse environmental and ecological effects.... Examples of toxic air pollutants include benzene, which is found in gasoline; perchlorethlyene, which is emitted from some dry cleaning facilities; and methylene chloride, which is used as a solvent and paint stripper by a number of industries. 3, record 2, English, - air%20toxic

Product Oil Solution Extraction. Caustic extraction and solvent separation have been used to separate Albany products into neutral, acid and insoluble fractions.... The separation was made by reacting the wood-derived product with excess aqueous 5% NaOH. The solution was then extracted with methylene chloride. The solvent was stripped from the organic layer to yield the neutral fraction. The aqueous phase was then reacidified with dilute HC1 and re-extracted with methylene chloride. The solvent was stripped from the organic phase to yield the acid fraction. The insolubles were filtered from the aqueous phase and dried. This particular scheme of extraction and separation was selected after several alternate techniques failed to provide adequate phase separation. 1, record 9, English, - caustic%20extraction
