The Mobile Injection
Treatment Unit Technology has been patented and successfully operated
by CBA since 1993. The Large Volume Remediator (LVR) consists of a 3
ft to 5 ft diameter rotating drum mounted to a conventional track trenching
machine.
The
MITU-LVR is capable of treating organic and inorganic contaminated soils
either in-situ or ex-situ. The MITU utilizes the rotating drum/trenching
action along with heat and various other reagents to remediate contaminated
soils. The cutting/mixing action of the MITU-LVR allows superior soil/reagent
blending and soil density breakdown in all soil types.

applications.
Hood
Assembly
The hood assembly is constructed of heavy gage plate steel. The hood
serves as both an environmental control device and a thermal treatment
unit. Hot air is forced into the hood across the soil veil while vapors
are collected for on-board treatment.
Vapor
Treatment
Vapors are typically transferred to an activated carbon filter assembly,
mounted on the rear of the trencher, at flow rates between 100 cfm to
300 cfm. Vapors can also be transferred to a separate thermal/catalytic
oxidizing unit for treatment.
Heat
Generation
Exhaust from the trencher is captured and delivered through a heat exchange
unit to provide forced hot air at temperature ranging from 200°
F to 800° F.
