EXTENDED ABSTRACT VERY HIGH VOC REMOVAL ATTAINMENT OF SUBSURFACE CONTAMINATED SOURCES UTILIZING UNIQUE THERMAL OXIDATION TECHNIQUES

摘要

Proper consideration of all aspects of the process/thermal oxidizer interface issues, as well as oxidizer design issues such as steady-state combustion conditions, materials of construction, are required to provide efficiency, safe, and reliable abatement systems. The following important conclusions are worth careful consideration for any SVE project involving thermal oxidation: 1. Accurate process data, and careful analysis and interpretation of process data, are critical. 2. Given the ranges of process swings, a conservative and simple design approach for the oxidizer system is mandatory. 3. Extensive "hazops" reviews are critical to insure safe, reliable, and effective integration of the process/oxidizer system. Designed correctly, these systems can provide MACT/BACT technology for abatement of emissions containing air toxics and VOCs from soil remediation projects.
