An attractive feature of the low-pressure, liquid-phase detoxification processes is their production of little or no gas. The high-pressure oxidation processes, however, produce a waste gas stream, which could be largely eliminated by capture of CO2 by lime.

Case 6, high-pressure, supercritical water or wet air oxidation, has the potential, with additional pilot plant work, to oxidize agent at relatively low temperatures. The water streams from both processes may require additional oxidation for complete mineralization.

Energetics could probably be destroyed in other alternative processes (supercntical water oxidation, molten salt, fluid~zed-bed combustion, and plasma arc processes) if separated from their metal containers and broken into small particles.
