Oil Remediation Product Applications on Environmental XPRT

Drill Cuttings Remediation

With a Vulcan® Systems Thermal Desorption Unit, Hydrocarbons are separated from the solids in the sludge. The treated solids have little to no residual hydrocarbons, resulting in an end product that can be disposed of easily and cost-effectively. What makes our equipment unique? The ability to recover diesel or oil in a way which maximizes the resaleability of use as a fuel.

Remedial Construction for Former Oil Field Production Sites

- Remediation of 600 former production or release sites transecting four counties - Treatment of over 500,000 cubic yards of petroleum impacted soils from the various site areas in an 8-acre bioremediation landfarm - Remediated soils are then re-used as backfill throughout the disturbed areas

Remedial Construction for the Energy Sector

ENTACT holds alliance contracts or master service agreements with most of the major energy companies in the United States. These service agreements were awarded and are maintained based upon health and safety culture and metrics, competitive pricing, and depth of experience. Our experience includes environmental and geotechnical construction projects at active refineries, exploration and production sites, terminals, pipelines, and abandoned properties.

Trivol 102 Regeneration

Trivol 102 Regeneration is a natural based absorbent that will soak up all hydrocarbon spills on land. We have super charged our product with millions of microbes that speed up the biodegradation process. Another special additive helps to naturally fertilize the soil to stimulate plant growth and further remediate the affected area. Trivol 102 Regeneration can be added to Trivol 101 Containment after it has been skimmed from water to dry ground.

Food Waste Recycling, Reduction or Disposal Systems for Mining Oil & Gas Exploration

Oil and Gas Pipeline Labour Camps: With applications across Turkey, Azerbaijan and the former Russian State of Georgia, Tidy Planet are suppliers to 7 different locations for large scale equipment to generate energy from the food wastes at these 400-2000 person sites. With the sites needing a solution that prevents waste being backhauled many miles to registered facilities, having a robust unit on hand that generates the heating and hot water for the kitchens, shower block and laundry is ideal. The Dragon is a scalable solution and can be provided for sites with 200-10,000 staff on site. •Remote Mines & Mine Labour: Treating food wastes at source in remote applications where landfill or uncontrolled dumping of wastes is no longer permitted, on site Rocket composting to allow the use of a composted end product for land remediation is often chosen. Otherwise as with oil & gas the Dragon food waste / energy system a preferred alternative providing a simple method of energy generation

Environmental testing & compliance screening for energy/environmental sector

Compliance screening and testing is often carried out during the manufacturing phase of a product, and all the way through its disposal or recycling process. It ensures that products and materials meet specific standards or comply with international and local directives or regulations. These standards and regulations are introduced to ensure the quality and safety of a product, and to minimise or eliminate its negative impact on the environment and people. Examples of products or materials tested are: electrical and electronic equipment (for compliance with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive), waste oils, soil (soil remediation depending on contents of toxic metals), children’s products (for compliance with Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008), etc.

Activated Carbon Filtration for the Water Filtration Industry

General Carbon carries a complete line of activated carbon made from coal, coconut shell and wood for most liquid phase applications. These include acid washed activated carbon for drinking water and food grade applications as well as products suitable for waste water remediation, decolorization applications, chemical and pharmaceutical purification. Additionally, our specialty medias are best for the treatment of non-emulsified oils and heavy metals. Our stock of activated carbon for liquid phase applications are all NSF certified, meaning that they are approved for treatment of food grade applications.

Soil and Groundwater treatment solutions for bioremediation industry

Today bioremediation is successfully used as soil– and groundwater remediation technology. Many bioremediation systems, both in-situ as ex-situ techniques, usually result in considerable cost savings. Since the beginning of the 1980’s both in-situ and ex-situ bioremediation projects have been successfully completed worldwide through the use of preselected and adapted bacteria. QM Environmental Services supplies a range of microbial, bioactivator and nutrient products and gas delivery systems for the use in both aerobic and anaerobic bioremediation programs. Most common contaminants ranging from aliphatic hydrocarbons such as petroleum, lubrication oils, aromatic compounds like benzene and toluene to chlorinated solvents can be treated with these products.

Sulfide Oxidation with Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2)

Sulfide Odor Control Sulfide is found throughout the environment as a result of both natural and industrial processes. Most sulfide found in nature was produced biologically (under anaerobic conditions) and occurs as free hydrogen sulfide (H2S) - characterized by its rotten egg odor. We are most likely to encounter biogenic H2S in sour groundwaters, swamps and marshes, natural gas deposits, and sewage collection/treatment systems. Manmade sources of H2S typically occur as a result of natural materials containing sulfur (e.g., coal, gas and oil) being refined into industrial products. For a variety of reasons - aesthetics (odor control), health (toxicity), ecological (oxygen depletion in receiving waters), and economic (corrosion of equipment and infrastructure) - sulfide laden wastewaters must be handled carefully and remediated before they can be released to the environment. Typical discharge limits for sulfide are < 1 mg/L. Sulfide Treatment Alternatives There are dozens of alternatives for treating sulfide laden waters, ranging from simple air stripping (for the low levels present in groundwaters) to elaborate sulfur recovery plants (used to treat several tons per day at refineries and coal burning power plants). There are processes based on biology (using compost filters, scrubbing media, or inhibition/disinfection), chemistry (oxidation, precipitation, absorption, and combination), and physics (adsorption, volatilization, and incineration). Each process occupies a niche which is often defined by the scale and continuity of treatment, whether the sulfide is in solution or is a gas, the concentration of sulfide involved, and the disposition of the sulfide containing medium. However, for reasons relating to convenience and flexibility, chemical oxidation (using hydrogen peroxide) continues to grow in its scope of application. Treatment with Hydrogen Peroxide While other peroxygens such as permonosulfuric (Caro’s) acid, peracetic acid, and persulfates will oxidize sulfide, their use for this application is overkill. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is considerably simpler and more cost-effective. H2O2 may control sulfides in two ways, depending on the application: Prevention - by providing dissolved oxygen which inhibits the septic conditions which lead to biological sulfide formation; and Destruction - by oxidizing sulfide to elemental sulfur or sulfate ion.
