Remediation equipment used in In-situ Thermal Desorption (ISTD) is the key to the simultaneous
application of heat by thermal conduction and vacuum to
contaminated soil. ISTD is a robust, field-proven remediation
technology that has been demonstrated to be capable of remediating
the full range of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and
semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) to levels at or below
typical regulatory agency clean-up standards. Among the many
applicable SVOCs are PCBs and dioxins. Among the VOCs are CVOCs
such as PCE. TerraTherm is the exclusive, worldwide licensee of
the ISTD family of technologies.
TerraTherm's ISTD remediation equipment and technology has been demonstrated to be able
to achieve very high DREs and very low treatment levels for both
SVOCs such as PCBs and VOCs such as PCE. The ability of ISTD
technology to predictably heat soil to the desired treatment
temperatures and the significant enhancement in the efficiencies
of the various removal mechanisms at these elevated temperatures
(e.g., volatilization, steam-stripping, hydrolysis, oxidation,
pyrolysis) allows us to offer a guarantee of clean-up to even
stringent remedial standards.
