摘要
A low-cost and innovative soil vapor extraction(SVE)system using modified internal combustion engines(ICEs)to extract and destroy fuel hydrocarbons is being operated at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base(DMAFB)Tucson, Arizona. The ICE systems with advanced emissions controls were manufactured by VR Systems, Inc., formerly of Anaheim, California. Parsons Engineering Science, Inc., under contract to the Air Force Center for Environmental Excellence, is collecting cost and performance data to compare the ICE technology to traditional fuel hydrocarbon vapor treatment technologies and to provide recommendations for full-scale treatment, including estimates of capital and operating costs.
