Feasibility study: Application of the geopressured-geothermal resource to pyrolytic conversion or decomposition/detoxification processes

“…, 1988) have been pioneers in the area. Other workers have included Rofer and G. Streit (Rofer, 1987 and1990; Rofer and Streit, 1989) and W. Killilea and collaborators (Staszak et a l . ;Malinowski and Killilea, 1987).…”

“…The scientific feasibility of the SCWO process itself has been we1 established by numerous bench-scale and small pilot-scale studies, with the pilot-scale unit having a nominal capacity of 500 gpd (2300 L/d) (Thomason and Modell, 1984;Rofer, 1987;Streit, 1988, 1989 and other re studies have Helling and Tester, 1988;Rofer and Wander, 1989; Johnston e t The wide variety o f constituents subjected to treatment in these ated studies has already been indicated in Table 3 . These shown that the DRE is a direct function of reactor temperature, as would be expected (Thomason and Modell, 1984).…”
