Process and device for the treatment of divided metallic residues contaminated by one or more organic compounds, comprising: a mixing, inside a vessel, of said metallic residues with at least one calcium-magnesium compound capable of reacting exothermically with water; an exothermic reaction of said at least one calcium-magnesium compound by the water that the metallic residues contain; a temperature rise of the metallic residues undergoing an exothermic reaction; a dehydration of said metallic residues during this exothermic reaction; an oxidation of the organic compounds during said mixing, by bringing the metallic residues contaminated by one or more organic compounds mixed with said at least one calcium-magnesium compound into contact with a gas stream at least partly containing oxygen; and discharge, out of the vessel, of a dehydrated and handleable treated product that has a residual content of organic compounds of less than 1 % by weight of said treated product. |
