The present invention is to provide a method for completely decomposing PCBs by reacting polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) contained in transformer insulating oil with a palladium catalyst and ammonium formate or sodium formate. The method of the present invention is advantageous in terms of economics and safety by using a very small amount of catalysts and formates, and also has an advantage that the reaction conditions are relatively gentle and can be easily applied at any place.n n n Transformer, Insulating Oil, Polychlorinated Biphenyl, Palladium Catalyst, Ammonium Formate, Sodium Formate |
