Thermopile©
Thermopile© is the newest technology developed by Deep Green and has
been proven successful in various projects after the introduction in 2006.
Thermopile© is unique as it enables thermal remediation of essentially
all hazardous organic pollution, without the need of excavation. Especially
in urban areas Thermopile© offers great advantages for cleaning contaminated
soil: no excavation, limited inconvenience, fast treatment, cost-efficient.

New: Thermopile© Lab…!
Deep Green has now a dedicated research centre, located in LeRoeulx. Here we can test our innovations and new applications,
especially with our unique Thermopile technology. For this purpose a small Thermopile system, Thermopile Lab, was developed (see photo's),
especially designed to do tests. The system will also be used to make reliable projections on customer projects: based on the characteristics
of the soil we can optimise the configuration and the related calculations. Thus creating even more customer value..!

The customer value of Thermopile©
Thermopile© has all the advantages of thermal remediation techniques,
but offers more than traditional techniques:
|
Thermal
treatment customer value |
Thermopile©
extra customer value |
Elimination of liabilities:
- Through vaporisation the result is reusable soil,
free from all organic pollutants
- No legal exposure for the customer, also not in the
future if regulations (criteria) may change
|
No excavation needed
- Can even be applied under a building
NB: there is also a Thermopile© application for treatment after
excavation, off-site or onsite. |
Can be applied for many and heavy contaminants
- the soils can be heated above the boiling points
of the contaminants
|
Limits inconvenience
- No traffic problems (closed streets etc)
- No (bad) odors
- No trucks
- Less noise
- No dust
|
Can be applied in all soil types
- Also tight clays
- Thermal conductivity of soils is very uniform : 100%
result can be assured
|
Short time frame
- Remediation time on average 4 - 12 weeks
- Can be steered by the configuration of the installation
|
| |
Low energy costs
- Recycling of the heated gas in a closed circuit
