Performance and Cost Evaluation of Purus PADRE(trade name) Regenerative ResinSystem for the Treatment of Hydrocarbon Vapors from Fuel-Contaminated Soils

摘要

This document describes the performance and costs associated with the PurusPADRE(registered) vapor treatment system. During the period of 11 February to 1 June 1994, a Purus PADRE(registered) Model 1.6 was tested at the Vandenberg Air Force Base (AFB) Base Exchange (BX) service station near Lompoc, California. In the Santa Barbara Air Pollution Control District, discharges of both total VOCs and benzene are regulated. The Purus PADRE(registered) system was selected to provide treatment of these compounds until vapor concentrations were reduced to acceptable levels. The purpose of this test was to independently measure both the performance and the cost of Purus PADRE(registered) operation, and to determine how this technology can be most effectively used to complement the bioventing technology.
