Abstract |
A twenty-four hour sampling and analytical effort was conducted on Resources Conservation Co.'s Solvent Extraction Sludge Treatment Technology prototype full-scale commercial facility while operating at the General Refining Superfund site in Garden City, Georgia. The site was contaminated with oily residues resulting from waste oil re-refining and reclamation operations. The B.E.S.T.(tm) sludge treatment technology was tested to determine its suitability as a transportable on-site treatment technology for spill and waste site cleanups, with special potential for oily hazardous waste materials. The process separates oily sludges into their component oil, solids, and water fractions, and conditions them for disposal or for further treatment. The test data confirm the system's capability to separate the sludges, often in efficiencies of over 98 percent. Comparison of laboratory simulation data to field data indicate that laboratory-scale simulations can be useful in predicting system performance. Further testing is needed to confirm the system efficiencies and develop complete operating cost data. |
