ABSTRACT:
A system for remediating water contaminated with combustible hydrocarbons, particularly groundwater contaminated with gasoline, operates by separation of hydrocarbons from the water by spray aeration of a heated water stream under vacuum. The air-hydrocarbon vapor mixture produced by spray aeration is combusted in an internal combustion engine which generates heat to heat the inlet water and power to drive the vacuum pump and the water lift pump. The exhaust from the engine can be catalytically reacted before exhaust to the atmosphere. The components of the system can be mounted on a portable support and moved to a site and operated continuously to remediate contaminated soil and water.
