OSTI ID:7185850

The report evaluates the Dehydro-Tech Corporation's Carver-Greenfield (C-G) Process and focuses on the technology's ability to separate waste mixtures into their constituent solid, organic and water fractions while producing a solid residual that meets applicable disposal requirements. The report presents performance and economic data from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Superfund Innovative Technology Evaluation (SITE) demonstration and three case studies. The C-G Process demonstration was conducted as a part of the SITE Program at the Risk Reduction Engineering Laboratory's Releases Control Branch facility in Edison, New Jersey, using drilling mud waste from the PAB Oil Superfund site in Abbeville, Louisiana. The system generated a treated solids product that passed Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) criteria for volatiles, semivolatiles and metals. Potential wastes that might be treated by the technology include industrial residues, Resource Conservation and Recovery Act wastes, Superfund wastes and other wastes contaminated with organic compounds. Economic analyses indicate that the cost of using the C-G process is about $523/ton of which $302 is for site-specific expenses.
