Soil Treatment

VTX Catalysts – Soil Treatment Case Studies

VTX has been shown to be extremely effective in treating contaminated soil in ex situ applications. The process has been demonstrated to treat high levels of a wide variety of chlorinated contaminants within soil that resulted in dramatic savings to industry.

The VTX process can be adapted to treat soil through pug mills or hammermill/screens with equal effectiveness. For surface applications the liquids can be applied to the soil and mixed with farming equipment. Treatment times vary but, in almost all applications, treatment time is less than four hours. Proper dosages of VTX and an oxidizing agent such as calcium, magnesium, hydrogen peroxide, ozone, persulphate, permanganate or halogenated compounds, will convert the target contaminants to carbon dioxide, water and common salts.

Innovative Remediation Technologies, Inc. has a working relationship with a number of qualified service contractors who provide for soil treatment using the VTX process if you do not have that capability. While the technique is fairly easily conducted, experience with on site treatment of soil using the VTX process can be valuable in assuring a successful project.

The manufacturers of VTX know of no other process that can be conducted at a lower cost than VTX. Further, cost reductions are usually substantially less than commonly available disposal options.
