Description:
This paper summarizes the various system performance tests and the long-term operating experience of the LINDE Oxygen Combustion System installed on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Mobile Incineration System (MIS) when it was in operation at the Denney Farm site in southwestern Missouri. The LINDE OCS was installed on the MIS as part of amajor modification program in 1987. The modified system waas first demonstrated for three months in 1987 when various system performance tests were conducted. Test burns of the modified MIS showed destruction and removal efficiencies (DRE) surpassing both Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) and Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) standards. The system resumed operation in February 1988 to continue the incineration of dioxin-contaminted materials from sitews in southwestern Missouri. After implementation of the modificxations, over ten million pounds of dioxin-contaminated material including soil, lagoon sludge, plastics, trash, protective clothing, wood, etc., were processed. MIS operations at Denney Farm ceased in April 1989.
