METHOD OF DECONTAMINATION OF SOIL, CONTAMINATED WITH ANTHRAX Russian patent published in 2016 - IPC A01G11/00 A01N25/00 

FIELD: veterinary science.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to veterinary science, namely to biological systems for decontamination of soil, contaminated with anthrax. Method of decontamination of soil, contaminated with anthrax, consists in the fact, that before installation of film over contaminated area, borders of this area and soil structure are determined by means of application, for example, of ground penetrating radar. Then this part is compacted, if necessary, with help of vibration actions, for example, by means of plate compactors or roller. Then tightness of installed film is checked with help of, for example, compressor plant, equipped with measuring instruments, which are connected with air-filled under-film space through valves, tightly installed in holes of film. Then air space and soil area under film are heated or cooled to temperature of +8…+10 °C. Then liquefied gas is supplied into open vessels, equipped with adjustable fire-explosion-proof heating device. After evaporation of liquefied gas, sorption of soil with its layers and exposure neutralization of gases in under-film area is made in emergency cases during decontamination, as well as at the end of this process by compressor, equipped with neutralization chamber and adsorbent container.

EFFECT: proposed method of soil decontamination provides effective and environmentally friendly method for eliminating biological contamination.
