This invention relates to a method of using an apparatus is provided for the accelerated bioremediation of treated contaminated material. The material is treated with chemical and/or biological amendments for facilitating accelerated bioremediation thereof. The apparatus comprises a system for for generating a treated contaminated material entraining air stream at a predetermined velocity for entraining the treated contaminate material therein for microenfractionating the treated contaminated material. In this way, accelerated bioremediation is facilitated. In another form of the invention, a method of accelerated bioremediation of treated contaminated material is provided. This method comprises the steps of (a) treating the treated contaminated material with chemical and/or biological amendments for facilitating accelerated bioremediation thereof, (b) providing an entraining air stream having a sufficient velocity for entraining the treated contaminated material therein, (c) entraining the treated contaminated material in the air stream, (d) microenfractionating the treated contaminated material, and (e) discharging the microenfractionated treated contaminated material from the air stream. In this way, the treated contaminated material can be acceleratedly bioremediated.
A method of using an apparatus in the accelerated bioremediation of a hydrocarbon-containing contaminated material which has been combined with chemical and/or biological amendments to form a treated hydrocarbon-containing contaminated material, the method comprising the steps of generating an air stream at a velocity sufficient for entraining the treated hydrocarbon-containing contaminated material therein, entraining the treated hydrocarbon-containing contaminated material in said air stream, and microenfractionating the treated hydrocarbon-containing contaminated material under conditions sufficient to form a microenfractionated treated hydrocarbon-containing contaminated material thereby facilitating subsequent accelerated bioremediation under conditions sufficient for conducting said accelerated bioremediation.
In a method of accelerated bioremediation for treating hydrocarbon-containing contaminated material, wherein said hydrocarbon-containing contaminated material is treated with chemical and/or biological amendments, the improvement which comprises:
