Clackamas – USA

Thermal desorption of 7.500 Tons of PCB contaminated soil. The history of the clean-up site was an underground pipe manufacturer. During initial site evaluation, the primary contaminants were identified as PCB’s, TCE, PCE, and PAH’s. A pilot test burn was conducted at Haemers Technologies’ facility to determine the achievable cleanup levels for the public Record of Decision (ROD) using thermal desorption technology. Excavation and pre-screening took place on location, and the contaminated soil to be thermally treated was transported to...

Portland – USA

Thermal desorption of 21.000 Tons of MGP TAR contaminated soil. The clean-up site is known as “The Pearl District” of Portland and is located downtown. It was a former manufacture gas plant (MGP) site operating from the 1930’s to mid 1950’s. The clean-up site was part of a major redevelopment project for the downtown area. Excavation took place on location, and contaminated soil to be thermally treated was transported to Haemers Technologies’ facility approximately 8 miles away. Haemers Technologies was involved...

Contaminated soils were processed by a counter flow, direct fired LTDU (Low Temperature Desorption Unit) with nominal capacity of 35 tons (US) per hour. The equipment train included a pre-screener, belt scale conveyor, rotary dryer, fabric filter bag house, thermal oxidizer, soil moisturizer, and radial stacker. Natural Gas and recycled oil were used as process fuel. The soil to be treated contained TPH concentrations up to 15,000 ppm. All soils were cleaned down to a less than 50 ppm TPH. Air emissions...

Ostrava – Czech Republic

Thermal desorption of 450,000 tons of tar contaminated soil by means of thermal desorption. The clean-up site is known as ‘Karolina’ and is located downtown Ostrava. It was a former gaswork site, part of a major steel factory. The clean-up project was funded by the Czech National Property Fund. Excavation and pre-treatment took place on the ‘Karolina’ location, and contaminated soil to be treated thermally was transported to a specific location, approx. 2km from Karolina, where the thermal unit was...

Houston – USA

Low Temperature Thermal Desorption of TPH contaminated soil from various gas stations at a fixed facility in Baltimore (MD) and Adelanto (CA). CONOCO PHILLIPS owns and operates a large quantity of gas stations in the United States. In accordance with their general environmental policies, as well as State regulations, those gas stations need to be cleaned-up and put in accordance with current legislation. Therefore, CONOCO PHILLIPS has remediated their gas stations, where the TPH contaminated soil was sent for thermal...

Fort Lewis – USA

Contaminated soils were processed by a counter flow, direct fired LTDU (Low Temperature Desorption Unit) with nominal capacity of 35 tons (US) per hour.
