0 a chemical element that exists as a strong-smelling, dark red liquid that changes easily into a gas, used in photographic materials and other industries --
1 an element that exists in nature as a poisonous liquid and gives off vapor (= gas) that causes uncomfortable physical reactions --
That process can produce, when attached to cholorine or bromine, chlorinated dibenzofurans, which can be harmful to people's health.
As bromine is an ingredient in poison gas, is there any means of controlling the exports from this country?
As aviation fuel contains no more than the smallest traces of chlorine or bromine, it will make no contribution to ozone layer depletion.
The release of chlorine and bromine can then destroy the ozone.
Any diversification that the company undertakes will naturally lead it into the production of bromine, chlorine and sodium.
In particular, they sought for the chemical called bromine which is largely used in the production of ethyl fluid for motor cars.
The bromine is extracted, and, by a triumph of modern chemical engineering they do this at a large profit.
The chemical process is totally enclosed and an intermediate bromine compound is produced within the closed plant.
