Halogenated C1and C2aliphatic compounds (HACs) including chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are among the most important trace gases affecting stratospheric ozone levels and are contributors to the greenhouse effect. HACs are among the most frequently found chemicals emanating from hazardous waste sites into the atmosphere. Although once believed to be resistant to transformation by aquatic and terrestrial processes, such transformations are now known to occur. Abiotic and microbial metabolic processes can transform in parallel or sequentially a wide range of HACs including CFC-11, CFC-12, CFC-113, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, carbon tetrachloride, and trichloroethylene. Rates and pathways depend on chemical structure and physico-chemical and biogeochemical conditions. The significance of such rates in terms of effect on global distributions is not known.
