What is Fumigants: EDB, EDC, and p-DCB Overview about?

The document discusses the preparation, properties, and uses of three fumigants: Ethylene Dibromide (EDB), Ethylene Dichloride (EDC), and Para-Dichlorobenzene (p-DCB). EDB is a toxic fumigant primarily used for pest control in stored grains but is largely banned; EDC serves mainly as an industrial solvent and has limited fumigant use; p-DCB is commonly used in mothballs and for odor control. The use of these fumigants is increasingly regulated due to their toxicity and environmental concerns.
