In Situ Solutions Savron’s STAR technology (in situ smoldering combustion) can destroy hydrocarbon contamination in the subsurface

Savron’s STARx technology (ex situ smoldering combustion) provides a low-cost alternative to off-site disposal of hydrocarbon-contaminated soils and liquid organic wastes.

Our remediation solutions are based on Savron’s patented technology: an energy-efficient self-sustaining combustion process that captures and recycles the energy released from hazardous materials to destroy them in an effective, controllable, and safe manner.

Sustainability

STAR/STARx ranks highly with respect to sustainability due to the net positive energy generated by the process. This means the energy generated by smoldering exceeds the sum of the heat sinks and losses: igniting the reaction, heating the contaminated materials up to smoldering temperatures, boiling off water and some volatiles, and radial heat losses.
