A simple method has been proposed for the removal and degradation of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) from catches using low cost and environmental friendly way. The removal of PCBs from lipid layer to aqueous layer was done by utilizing polyethylene glycol (PEG) as phase transfer agent and photocat...
