Steam Stripping Organics from "Fluidized" Soils (versus Confined Soils)

A laboratory comparison is made between the ability to steam strip organic contaminants from soil in the confined state and the ability to do so in the "fluidized" state. The soil used was a 50 50 mixture of beach sand and river silt. It was found that the removal of benzene, toluene, and...

Zusammenfassung:	A laboratory comparison is made between the ability to steam strip organic contaminants from soil in the confined state and the ability to do so in the "fluidized" state. The soil used was a 50 50 mixture of beach sand and river silt. It was found that the removal of benzene, toluene, and xylene and dodecane occurred much faster and to a much greater extent in the "fluidized" soil than in the confined soil.
