Publication number: 20170369132Abstract: An apparatus, system and method for removing and treating contaminated materials on a bottom of a body of water and introducing growth packets to revitalize the treated bottom of the body of water. The structure may comprise a vessel with an open face. The vessel may be lowered down to the bottom of the body of water with the face facing down. As a result, the vessel and the bottom form an isolated space. The structure may comprise at least one agitating device(s) for stirring up the materials inside the vessel so as to form a mixture containing the sediment materials which in turn contain the contaminants. Multiple at least one pipe(s) may be coupled to the vessel for transporting the mixture out of the vessel for processing (filtering, treating with chemicals, etc.) so as to neutralize or eliminate the contaminants in the mixture. Then, the treated mixture can be returned to the inside of the vessel via the at least one pipe(s).Type: ApplicationFiled: June 29, 2017Publication date: December 28, 2017Applicant: Air & Earth LLCInventor: Thomas J.

Patent number: 9016981Abstract: An Oil/Gas Recovery System, a Rotating Encasement Fitting (REF) and Methods of Using. The Oil/Gas Recovery System comprises a flexible shroud open at an end facing a leaking drill line arising from the bottom of a body of water, a recovery system operably coupled to the flexible shroud by an intake line, and a delivery system, operably coupled to the flexible shroud by a delivery line. The flexible shroud is adapted to be lowered or raised in a body of water, so that the open end encloses a source of crude oil or gas to be recovered. The Rotating Encasement Fitting (REF) for sealing a compromised pipeline fracture, comprises bladder glands at each end of the REF and a pipeline having a fracture therein. The bladder glands can be activated by a supply line or remotely supplied for multiple charges.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2011Date of Patent: April 28, 2015Inventor: Thomas J. Kryzak
