A method of treating waste matter comprising:
- applying a composition to the waste matter;
- and
- subjecting the waste matter to radiation;
- wherein the composition is made by the process of:
- (a) combining a polyaniline solution and an aqueous polyvinyl alcohol solution to form an aqueous polyaniline/polyvinyl alcohol solution;
- and
- (b) combining the aqueous polyaniline/polyvinyl alcohol solution with an aqueous peroxide solution.
