Remediation of recalcitrant compounds at sites with high concentrations of volatile organic com- pounds (VOCs) or nonaqueous-phase liquids (NAPLs) can present significant technical and financial (long-term) risk for stakeholders. Until recently, however, sustainability has not been included as a significant factor to be considered in the feasibility and risk evaluation for remediation ...
Summer 2015 marked the completion of two years successful operation of an ERG (Air Pollution Control) Ltd designed, installed and commissioned waste gas treatment plant at the Saffil production facility in Widnes. Background Saffil Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Unifrax, produces high temperature insulation products, for use in automotive catalytic convertors and other automotive and ...
Paint shops are an energy-intensive step in the automotive manufacturing process. One of the world´s largest paint-shop complexes is operated by the Volkswagen Group at its main plant in Wolfsburg. In the past VW used hot air from thermal afterburners to heat its paint dryers. Following a detailed review, the company was one of the first to decide to upgrade these burners by installing ...
A number of technologies have been widely applied for removal of VOCs from off-gas streams. However, the application of these technologies to off-gases from site remediation may be quite limited. Biofiltration has been widely applied for VOC destruction in Europe and Japan, but it has only recently been used in the United States. Catalytic and thermal oxidation are widely used for the destruction ...
A biofilter inoculated with a genetically engineered Escherichia coli strain was successfully applied to treat air streams containing a mixture of parathion and methyl parathion (MP). Average removal efficiencies of 95.2% for parathion and 98.6% for MP were obtained during the overall operation period. Compared with conventional biofilters, the biofilter inoculated with the engineered E. coli ...
A power plant is using a wet scrubber system to treat flue gases. Sofi Filter treats the flue gas condensate coming from sand filter overflow before the liquid enters reverse osmosis system.Reverse osmosis is sensitive to even the finest solids, and the solids concentration limits, in this case particularly the aluminum and iron particles, have been set very low. Current maximum acceptedlevel is ...
Nacah Tech's President, Bob Keibler presents How to select the proper type of thermal oxidizer or process gas treatment method. The paper presents details on what parameters of a process gas to be treated determine which treatment method / oxidizer provides the best efficiency, plant flexibility, heat recovery method, etc. while maintaining the target emission rates. Begining with the basic 3T's ...
A microwave process for treating exhaust gases from internal combustion engines is presented. The exhaust gases are ionised by microwave energy at 2.45 GHz and the resultant plasma jet discharges into ambient air and exhaust gas environment. A gas analyser was used to measure the change in exhaust gas composition due to the influence of the plasma. Large decreases in CO2, CO and hydrocarbon ...
COVERING YOUR TAIL GAS The discovery of new shale formations throughout the world and the development of new drilling technologies have increased natural gas production and prompted government agencies to instigate tighter air-pollutioncontrol regulations on processing operations. Unfortunately, meeting environmental regulations is not a profit-generating endeavor. Simply put, the time and money ...
Untitled Document EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This document provides state-of-the-practice information on off-gas treatment technologies for soil vapor extraction (SVE) systems currently being used to clean up hazardous waste sites. It provides information on a wide variety of processes, including common practices as well as innovative emerging alternatives to illustrate the state ...
Environmental Issues Controlling the off-gas from a remediation project, where high concentrations of petroleum hydrocarbons are present, can be a difficult if not dangerous process when utilizing internal combustion engines and conventional oxidation technology. In more recent years, the use of high vacuum pumps to accomplish both liquid and gas phase extraction — sometimes referred to ...
Predictive modeling may be usefelected to represent the system (e.g., SVE treatment, incinerator, etc.), and site and contaminant informaul in estimating emissions from a site or treatment system. An appropriate theoretical model is stion is used to estimate gross emissions. Because many variables affect emission rates, this approach is limited by the representativeness of the model and by the ...
Application ERG supplied a waste gas treatment plant and over 4 years on the plant continues to deliver emissions compliance for Saffil. Saffil Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Unifrax, produces high temperature insulation products, for use in automotive catalytic convertors and other automotive and industrial applications. From their production facility in Widnes, Saffil produces ...
Sharing a common goal, experts in emissions monitoring and emissions abatement have formed a working partnership to develop innovative new materials for treating pollutants in flue gas emissions. A business strategy with a heavy focus on innovation has enabled Lhoist, a family owned Belgian company, to become one of the world’s leading providers of Flue Gas Treatment (FGT) products and ...
Gas Station Site Dewatering Treatment Florida Carbonair provided a turn-key temporary water treatment system for this project. A Carbonair field crew mobilized, set up, and trained the clients operators of the system to operate the system. At the conclusion of the project Carbonair provided demobilization services including the extraction and disposal of the spent media, and demobilization of ...
As environmental regulations become more stringent, waste gas treatment systems are growing in importance. H+H Umwelt- und Industrietechnik GmbH of central Germany has been using Allweiler progressing cavity pumps as a core component of these systems since 2003. The company has been manufacturing catalytic waste gas treatment systems since 1998. Originally they focused on applications in block ...
An electrical discharge in water with TiO2 suspension has been applied for the decolourisation of methyl orange as a model of dye. The results showed the decolourisation was successful in the reactor. The increase in the flow rate of gas injection enhanced the decolourisation rate. Oxygen injection had a stronger influence when compared with Ar injection. The suspension of TiO2 improved the ...
The study estimates the influence of PVC on the quantity and hazardousness of flue gas residues from incineration. The analysis has been carried out on both theoretical and practical terms. A distinction between dry, semi-dry and wet gas treatment systems has been made. The influence of PVC has been assessed on the combustion steps and therefore on the distribution of chlorine and other ...
