METHOD FOR ACCELERATED BIOREMEDIATION AND METHOD OF USING ANAPPARATUS THEREFOR

摘要

This invention relates to a method of using an apparatus is provided for the accelerated bioremediation of contaminated material. The material is treated with chemical and/or biological amendments for facilitating accelerated bioremediation thereof. The apparatus comprises means for generating a treated contaminated material entraining air stream at a predetermined velocity for entraining the treated contaminate material therein for microenfractionating the treating contaminated material. In this way, accelerated bioremediation is facilitated. In another form of the invention, a method of accelerated biomediation of treated contaminated material is provided. This method comprises the steps of (a) treating the treated contaminated material with chemical and/or biological amendments for facilitating accelerrated biomedication thereof, (b) providing an entraining air stream having a sufficient velocity for entraining the treated contaminated material therein, (c) entraining the treated contaminated material in the air stream, (d) microfractionating the treated contaminated material, and (e) discharging the microenfractionated treated contaminated material from the air stream. In this way, the treated contaminated material can be acceleratedly bioremediated.
