  • Electromagnetic method and apparatus for the treatment of radioactive material-containing volumes
    Patent number: 5199488
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for treating containers holding mixed wastes and regions of the earth contaminated with radioactive materials or mixed waste provide for extracting one of non-radioactive or radioactive materials from the contaminated volume. The method also includes using a phase-modulated multiple antenna system for treating larger near-surface volumes and for creating steerable and variable heating patterns. The radio frequency antenna apparatus can be used for volatilizing non-radioactive materials from containers or volumes of the earth and disposing of them in a safe and controlled manner.
