Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Japanese law calls for the country's refiners to replace electric transformers that contain polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) by 2029.
PCBs are advanced chlorine compounds known for their heat resistance and insulation properties, but they also are highly carcinogenic.
Some of the refineries have already completed the replacements. ENEOS Corporation (Tokyo, Japan) is planning to replace the transformers this year during maintenance turnarounds.
