MOBILE THERMAL DESORPTION CASE HISTORIES

Our clients future liability is very important to TSI. Therefore, the use of on site innovative technology to remediate contaminated soils has appealed to our clients.

TSI uses the IRV-100 Hydrocarbon Extractor, which is a portable, mobile hydrocarbon system used to remove volatile and semi-volatile hydrocarbons from contaminated soils. The extractor will accommodate petroleum hydrocarbons, chlorinated, aromatic and aliphatic solvents, and semi-volatiles in soils and aggregates.

The principals used in this soil treatment method include conduction and convection heating and vacuum extraction through reduced pressure volatilization of the material being treated in a batch treatment process.

Project 1
LOCATION:Long Island, New York
CLIENT:Confidental Large Bank
PROJECT DATE:October, 1995 to November, 1995

BACKGROUND:There were two areas of contamination at a marina; the maintenance area and fuel station area. The maintenance area was contaminated with waste oils, and fuel station area was contaminated with gasoline.

ACTION TAKEN:Approximately 1500 cubic yards were treated to meet the clean-up standards in the New York State STAR Memo Guidance Document for Petroleum Contaminated soils.
