Mobile, Thermal Soil Remediation

At NER, our mission is to safely and efficiently deliver, Clean Dirt, No Doubt!  NER employs technology that delivers the certainty of achieving remediation criteria, as well as destruction of extracted organic contaminants insuring no harmful emission to atmosphere. 

NER’s Thermal Desorption Unit (TDU) technology delivers the Mobile Thermal Soil Remediation process, an Ex-Situ means of physically separating volatile and semi-volatile organic contaminants from soils. Contaminated soil is placed in the Primary Chamber (PC, Desorber or, Kiln), and heated to volatilize the associated hydrocarbons, effectively removing the toxins from soil as a gas stream. At this stage the clean soil exits the PC and is re-hydrated and cooled. This gas stream is then passed through a high-surface area baghouse/filtration unit, where dust and particulate is removed.  In the final stage these gases further travel to a Secondary Chamber (SC, Afterburner or, Oxidation Chamber) where the toxic molecules are rendered harmless. The treated material can then be returned to the original excavation site as, Clean Dirt, No Doubt!, thereby eliminating the need for costly backfill and, avoiding the often-dangerous transportation of soil to landfill.
