  • Patent number: 9790896
    Abstract: A remedial pollution control system for treating volatile organic compounds that may include a vapor concentrator connected to a line that is laden with volatile organic compounds, the concentrator has an organic condensate output line and a vapor output line; a mixing chamber adapted to receive air provided from an air supply line, combustible fuel from an alternate fuel supply line, and a vapor stream from the vapor output line to produce a mixed fuel supplied to an internal combustion engine, a control mixing system with a controller for producing a proper air to fuel ratio in the mixed fuel supply, and power generated to operate other devices used to more efficiently abate volatile organic compounds and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 5424045
    Abstract: Combustible hydrocarbon gas from a contaminated zone of soil and/or water is abated by removing hydrocarbon gas from the zone, combusting a first portion of the hydrocarbon gas in an internal combustion engine to develop power and to produce hot exhaust gas, delivering a second portion of the hydrocarbon gas and the hot exhaust gas to a catalytic unit, passing the hot gas exiting the catalytic unit in countercurrent heat exchange relation to the second portion of the hydrocarbon gas before venting said exit gas and utilizing the power from said engine to remove hydrocarbon gas and contaminated water from the zone and to pump the gases throughout the system.
