Technology Description:

The process will require the installation of a grid of injection wells and a grid of recovery wells at select locations in between the injection wells. Steam is injected through the injection wells. The pressure gradient between the injection wells and the grid of recovery wells will provide the driving force for steam to flow. The steam flood will vaporize volatiles and drive out nonvolatiles in a fashion similar to any steam stripping process. Vapors will be collected and condensed for off-site treatment.

          (1) We have capable and experienced staff and we can respond to potential customers in the same week of the inquiry.

          (2) The technology was developed with the purpose of treating wood preservation sites and it is our target market for the application.

          Steam flood is an old technology utilized for enhanced oil recovery from relatively shallow oil fields, and now revisited for applications on much shallower applications.

Limitations:

Limitations:

          The technology is limited only by the critical pressure of steam. There are approximately 3000 pounds per square inch (psi) available to work with in terms of pressure drop. We are also limited by steam temperature. We can treat a vast range of organic pollutants. The process is very effective whenever the pollutant forms azeotropes with water.
