RIC announces on July 20, 2005 that it has received a new patent award for
its AVS II technology.
|
AVS-II
The AVS-II offers
a vitrification technology that reduces AVS processing costs while
further reducing the number of disposal containers. Essentially, the AVS-II
includes a drain valve at the bottom of the container, which
allows the disposable melter to be continuously fed and used until
the container internals erode to a predetermined level. Then, the
AVS-II in-container melter is filled with melted waste, removed
and disposed of like a standard disposal container. The drain
valve at the bottom of the AVS-II in-container melter permits
molten waste to pour into standard disposal containers, thus
maximizing the disposal volume of each container. As with the AVS, the outer
dimensions of the AVS-II in-container melter can be made to match
almost any specified disposal container.
