PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an oxidative decomposition method of a nitrogen-based organic compound for establishing a computational algorithm for the required total number of moles of OH radicals or the like, and achieving an automated and controlled computational algorithm tool.SOLUTION: In the oxidative decomposition method, a nitrogen atom-containing component of a hardly decomposable nitrogen-based organic compound is subjected to oxidative decomposition by an OH radical. The oxidative decomposition method includes: a first process where, when an OH group is contained, the OH radical takes a hydrogen atom to cause oxidation of the OH group and to form a double-bonded oxygen atom; a second process where, when a hydrogen atom is contained, the OH radical takes the hydrogen atom to cause oxidation; and a third process where the OH radical is added to an unpaired electron of the atom to produce the OH group. In a fourth process, the OH radical takes the hydrogen atom from a water molecule to cause oxidation, and nascent hydrogen is produced to thereby produce nitric acid by reduction. |
