  • Publication number: 20040087826
    Abstract: A method for reducing the toxicity of incineration ash containing dioxin-type compounds includes the step of contacting the contaminated incineration ash with an aqueous solution of an alkaline earth metal hydroxide. Detoxification occurs at relatively low temperatures (e.g. below 350 degrees Celsius) and can be performed in the presence of water that is often found in incineration ash storage piles. The solution and ash are kept in contact for a pre-determined detoxification period. Once detoxification has progressed to a desired endpoint, the solution is drained to a storage vessel where it can be re-used to treat additional incineration ash. In one implementation, the treatment is performed at a slightly elevated temperature (e.g. 100 degrees Celsius) to reduce the length of the detoxification period while maintaining the same level of detoxification.

  • Patent number: 6027651
    Abstract: A process for regenerating a solvent from a waste extract after use in a remediation process includes monitoring the water content and the amount of organic contaminants in the extract. If the water content in the extract is above a predetermined threshold value, the extract is distilled to yield the solvent therefrom for reuse in the remediation process. If the water content is below the threshold value but the amount of organic contaminants is above a predetermined limit, the extract is also distilled to yield the solvent therefrom for reuse. If the water content and amount of organic contaminants are both below their respective predetermined parameters, the extract is filtered through a molecular sieve to yield the solvent therefrom. The yield solvent is then collected from the distillation and filtering processes, and the regenerated solvent is then reused in the remediation process.
