Materials and methods are provided for mitigating the effects of halide species contained in process streams. The halide-containing process stream may be contacted with an emollient comprising an active metal oxide and a non-acidic high surface area carrier solid in combination with a porous substrate. Halide species in the process stream may be reacted with a safener to produce a neutralized halide salt and a substantially halide-free process stream. Neutralized salts can be attracted and retained on solid, porous substrates. |
