Evaporative Desorption Soil Treatment Apparatus And Process

US Patent:
6829844, Dec 14, 2004
Filed:
Feb 18, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/781445
Inventors:
Patrick Richard Brady - Salem OR 97304
John Lee Brady - Los Osos CA 93402
International Classification:
F26B 700
US Classification:
34381, 34417, 34519, 34 62, 34235, 34236
Abstract:
Treatment apparatus and a process for thermal desorption of hydrocarbon contaminants from excavated soil provides efficient contaminant removal by handling the soil in a thermally conductive treatment vessel that fits within an insulated treatment chamber. The soil is treated in this chamber with fresh air that is dried and electrically heated prior to contacting the treatment vessel. The dry air passes through the soil and the air mixed with contaminants is withdrawn from the chamber through piping in the treatment vessel. Excavating the soil directly into the treatment vessel allows the treated soil to be returned to the final disposition site in the same vessel, minimizing soil handling.
