ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for decontaminating soil which has been contaminated with hazardous hydrocarbons. The apparatus includes a blending or scrubbing unit for mixing the contaminated soil with water and a suitable surfactant to form a slurry; screening apparatus operably interconnected with the blending unit for removing from the slurry particles larger than a predetermined size to form a small particle slurry; a reactor unit operably interconnected with the screening apparatus for reacting the slurry with ozone to form an ozone enriched slurry; an ultraviolet radiation generator for irradiating the ozone enriched slurry with ultraviolet radiation; a static mixer operably interconnected with the reactor unit for mixing a floculating material with the slurry to form a floculated slurry; and a belt-forming press for receiving the floculated material from the static mixer and for forming the floculated slurry into contamination free blocks.
