چکیده

Pilot plant studies were carried out to evaluate the feasibility of remediation of coal tarcontaminated soil and oil-contaminated gravel by incineration with environmentally acceptable performance. In addition to adequate decontamination and emission control, effort was devoted to treating the special feedstocks with difficult handling properties by use of conventional combustion and feeding systems. Analysis of the results showed that satisfactory decontamination of the soil and gravel could be achieved and emission of pollutants in the flue gas could be effectively controlled. It would also be possible to recover the heat energy from the incinerated material to make the remediation process more cost-effective.

LABORATORY TEST METHODS Soil Mixture Preparation

treatment temperature increased, especially at temperatures in excess of 450~ However, the strength decreases were small (less than 15%), and the concrete strength was still within typical values for structural concrete. The leachability tests showed that as treatment temperature was increased, levels of PAHs in the soil significantly decreased. From the leachability tests performed on samples ...

Microwave thermal remediation of crude oil contaminated soil enhanced by carbon fiber.

Thermal remediation of the soil contaminated with crude oil using microwave heating enhanced by carbon fiber (CF) was explored. The contaminated soil was treated with 2.45 GHz microwave, and CF was added to improve the conversion of microwave energy into thermal energy to heat the soil. During microwave heating, the oil contaminant was removed from the soil matrix and recovered by a condensatio...
