C3 TECHNOLOGY

The C3 Technology developed by G.E.O. is a combination of cryogenic-cooling and compression processes with a proprietary regenerative adsorption technology that efficiently recovers volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and hydrocarbons from the off-gas vapor stream of soil vapor extraction (SVE) or dual phase extraction (DPE) systems. The chemical is recovered as a non-aqueous phase liquid (NAPL) that is temporarily containerized in appropriate vessels for recycling or proper disposal. Generally, greater than 99.9% of the VOCs are recovered from the vapor stream. Dependent upon the contaminant and State or local agency, final effluent may be polished with granular activated carbon (GAC).

PROCESS DESCRIPTION

Soil gas is drawn into the system and delivered to the air compressor by a 5- to 10-horsepower positive displacement blower.
Entrained liquids from extraction wells are separated at the water knockout tank. Separated liquids are securely drummed and transported off-site or captured with GAGAC and discharged to the sewer or storm drain in accordance with all local and state regulatory requirements.
Process air is compressed to approximately 150 pound per square inch (psi) by the compressor.
Water vapor is removed from the process stream at the air-to-air heat exchangers as it is cooled to ambient temperature.
The vapor stream is further cooled to approximately -40° C in the refrigerated heat exchangers, where the chemical constituents are condensed and separated from the vapor stream.
The vapor stream is then sent to the regenerative adsorber, which removes any residual VOCs and directs it back to the inlet stream.

System effluent vapor stream [<1.0 parts per million by volume (PPMV)] is finally polished utilizing granular activated carbon (GAC) prior to discharge to atmosphere.

GEO currently manufactures standard units of 100, 200, 300, 500 and 1,000 CFM or CMH systems.

EXPERIENCE
G.E.O. has performed successfully on jobs ranging in size from Superfund sites to small dry cleaners and fuel stations. International engineering firms and Fortune 500 companies are among satisfied clients.
G.E.O. has performed successfully for more than 20 years on a variety of sites across the United States
and growing internationally.

Subsequent clean-up projects have demonstrated system effectiveness in the following applications:

• SVE • DPE/MPE • Airsparge/SVE • In-Situ Thermal Heating and ERH

G.E.O. Inc. also provides mobile units specifically designed for vapor extraction site qualification and testing (SQT). The SQT units (pilot test systems) generate the data essential for design and implementation of the full-scale system. Various location permits are available for up to one year in selected regions.

G.E.O. Inc. technical staff training utilizes both in-house programs and equipment supplier training schools to achieve and maintain requisite operation certification and credentials on a variety of approved environmental remedial and monitoring systems. All G.E.O. field personnel have successfully completed and maintain certified currency in Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response
requirements per OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120.
