| 内容記述 | Volatile organic compounds are mainly degraded in the troposphere by attack of OH with abstraction of H atoms or addition to unsaturated linkages. The chlorofluorocarbons (CFC's) do not contain these reactive sites and consequently cannot be degraded in this way in the lower atmosphere. This results in pollution of the stratosphere by these molecules and attendant problems for ozone. The proposed replacements for CFC's, the hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFC's), and hydrofluorocarbons (HFC's), contain at least one hydrogen atom in the molecule, which confers on these compounds a greater sensitivity toward oxidation by OH in the troposphere and in the lower stratosphere, resulting in much shorter atmospheric lifetimes than the CFC's. Consequently, the Ozone Depletion Potential and the Atmospheric Warming Potential are reduced substantially compared to the CFC's. All the possible degradation processes of the HCFC's and HFC's proposed to replace the CFC's are examined with the principal aim of identifying chlorine- and fluorine-containing products which are stable under tropospheric conditions. |
