To treat PCPcontaminated soil abiotic methods for PCP degradation have been developed where heme or powder hemoglobin acts as a catalyst and hydrogen peroxide as an oxidant Degradation of PCP had the firstorder kinetics and rate coefficients k were 0073 and 0104/day for heme and hemoglobin respectively indicating that the hemoglobin was a more efficient catalyst than heme Approximately 96 of the initial PCP was degraded at day 35 Thus hemoglobin might be recommended as the catalyst of choice since it is much less expensive than heme
