Method of remediating a soil contaminated by polyhalogenated hydrocarbons, in particular PCBs, PCDDs and PCDFs, comprising the steps of removing and sieving the soil to free it of stones and gravel; possibly regulating the moisture content of the sieved soil to a value of 10-30%; subjecting the sieved soil to thermal treatment while it flows in the form of a thin, turbulent, dynamic layer in contact with a wall heated to at least 250° C.; separating the thermally treated soil from the steam generated following such treatment, the soil being substantially free of the aforementioned polyhalogenated hydrocarbons.

Abstract

A process is described for drying melamine wet cakes, comprising the steps of: a) providing a turbo-dryer (T) comprising a cylindrical tubular body (1) having a heating jacket (4), inlets and outlets (5, 6) and a bladed rotor (7) rotatably supported therein; b) feeding a continuous flow of a melamine wet cake into the turbo-dryer (T), the internal wall (9) of which is maintained at a temperature of at least 220°C; c) feeding a continuous flow of a gas selected from air or nitrogen into the turbo- dryer (T); d) subjecting the flow of melamine wet cake to the mechanical action of the bladed rotor (7) rotating at a speed of at least 200 rpm, with consequent centrifugation of the wet cake against the heated wall (9), thus causing the instantaneous evaporation of the water contained into the cake, and transport of the latter towards the outlet (6); e) continuously discharging, after an average residence time of less than 1 minute, a flow of melamine crystals having a humidity content of less than 0.1%.

Abstract

A continuous process and a system for drying solid organic substances in an aqueous phase or a mixed (water/organic solvent) phase, which includes feeding a continuous stream of such substances into a continuous drier, to obtain a continuous output stream of dried powder material and steam at a temperature in excess of 100° C. for delivery to an apparatus separating the powder material from the steam. A continuous run of the powder material and a continuous run of steam are discharged from the apparatus for recirculation to the drier, with the steam pressure inside the drier and the separating apparatus kept constant at a value to ensure that substantially no oxygen is present, or that the powder material cannot be ignited. The recirculation is carried out by continuous drawing, downstream of the separating apparatus, an amount of steam corresponding to the amount of steam generated within the drier.
