Contaminant Removal From Material

US Patent:
5688335, Nov 18, 1997
Filed:
Sep 5, 1995
Appl. No.:
8/523177
Inventors:
Herman Otto Krabbenhoft - Scotia NY
Jimmy Lynn Webb - Ballston Lake NY
James Hall Maxymillian - Pittsfield MA
Stephen Allen Warren - Becket MA
Assignee:
General Electric Company - Schenectady NY
Maxymillan Technologies, Inc. - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
B08B 700
US Classification:
134 19
Abstract:
Contaminated material is treated with heat and steam to remove halogenated organic compounds from the material. The heating temperature can be lowered by admixing an additive with the contaminated material. A short passage of steam at a flow rate of about at least 0. 5 pounds of water by weight per minute per ton of soil immediately following the heating and holding stage, substantially removes the halogenated organic contaminants to below ten parts per million in the treated material.
