摘要:
A method of removing organic contaminants from an aqueous composition contaminated therewith. The method comprises contacting the aqueous composition with a sufficient amount of organoclay for a sufficient amount of time to absorb a substantial portion of the contaminant, and to form an aqueous organoclay admixture. The organoclay and aqueous composition are then separated from each other. The method is particularly useful for separating oily contaminants from water toxic substance precursors, e.g. humic acid and toxic organics (e.g. PCB) from water.

This invention relates to the treatment of obnoxious waste effluents, both industrial and municipal, such as chemical waste landfill leachates, chemical process wastewaters and other obnoxious waste effluents by the use of microbial cultures, especially adapted to biodegrade the obnoxious chemicals in the chemical wastes, such as activated sludge and inoculants for activated sludge, and the new inoculated activated sludges and their use in biological wastewater systems such as continuous and batch reactors.

Procédé de traitement de compositions de fluides aqueux ou polaires contenant une quantité de contaminants organiques dans le but d'immobiliser le contaminant en formant une matrice non-coulable contenant le contaminant. La matrice non-coulable peut être facilement éliminée. Le procédé consiste à ajouter une quantité suffisante d'organo-argile à la composition fluide pour absorber sensiblement toute la substance contaminante organique. Une quantité suffisante d'adsorbants solides est ajoutée à la composition pour absorber ou réagir avec sensiblement la totalité du fluide polaire ou de l'eau pour former une matrice sensiblement non-coulable. D'une manière typique, de tels fluides polaires ou compositions aqueuses sont sous forme d'émulsions avec le contaminant organique, et l'adjonction des organo-argiles détruit l'émulsion, permettant l'extraction d'une partie de l'eau ou du fluide polaire de la composition pour réduire ainsi le volume à éliminer. Le procédé de la présente invention immobilise le contaminant organique de sorte qu'il ne peut pas suinter de la matrice.
摘要:
A method is provided for treating polar or aqueous fluid emulsions of an organic composition. The method comprises contacting the emulsion with an emulsion-breaking amount of an organoclay to adsorb a major portion of the organic composition. Preferably, a portion of the water or polar fluid is then removed.

An injection tip assembly 10 and methods for use more reliably provide for delivery of fluid substances, such as materials that promote removal, destruction, or isolation of contaminants, into targeted zones within soil or bedrock. The injection tip assembly 10 permits the application of pressurized fluid 163 so as to erode or cut a desired cavity or eroded volume 164 within the subsurface 14, allows for timely observation, adjustment, and control of pressure within the cavity, and directs the delivery of a second substance or fluid that may incorporate desired materials. The consequence of managed erosion and pressure control is to nucleate and propagate a hydraulic fracture of desirable form that optimally delivers remedial agents throughout the targeted formation.

The present disclosure relates to a system for controlling an extraction of landfill gas flow (LFG) from a plurality of wellheads at a landfill. The system has a first wellhead located at the landfill, a first processor having a first rule set, and a first LFG flow control valve controllable by the first processor. A second wellhead is located at the landfill in a vicinity of the first wellhead and has a second processor and a second LFG flow control valve. The second processor has a second rule set and is operable to control the second LFG flow control valve. The first and second processors use their said rule sets to control the first and second LFG flow control valves, respectively, to control an LFG flow through their said first and second wellheads, respectively.
摘要:
The invention relates to a refuse landfill impervious system capable of prolonging breakdown time of leachate and a manufacturing method thereof. The system comprises a leachate collection and drainage layer, a first HDPE (high-density polyethylene) geomembrane impervious layer, a clay layer and a groundwater collection and drainage layer which are sequentially stacked from top to bottom. The clay layer is composed of a lower clay layer, a middle clay layer and an upper clay layer which are sequentially arranged, wherein the middle clay layer is filled with a medium-fine sand layer laid with sands of particle sizes ranging from 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm and of water contents ≤ 3%, wherein the saturated permeability coefficient of the medium-fine sand layer varies from 1×10 -5 to 1×10 -3 cm/s. Therefore, breakdown time of the leachate can be greatly prolonged, and the imperious effects of a refuse landfill impervious layer can be enhanced; meanwhile, the medium-fine sands are readily available as they are low in cost and widely spread in China. The refuse landfill impervious system capable of prolonging breakdown time of the leachate has a simple structure and is able to effectively prevent the groundwater from permeating in order to saturate the medium-fine sand layer, keeping the medium-fine sand layer in an unsaturated state all the time.
