US Patent:

56119208, Mar 18, 1997

Filed:

Jun 19, 1995

Appl. No.:

8/492394

Inventors:

Gregory D. Simpson - Deer Park TX
Garry D. Laxton - Pasadena TX
Harold D. McCullough - Hobbs NM
Jay T. Miller - Hobbs NM

Assignee:

Unichem International Inc. - The Woodlands TX

International Classification:

C02F 176

US Classification:

210192

Abstract:

A system and method for the delivery and application of a biocide treatment to a facility. A specially adapted vehicle is used to transport biocide precursors, and a generator capable of generating biocide from those precursors, to the site of the facility to be treated. Incompatible precursors are isolated from each other in separate compartments in the vehicle. At the site, the generator is communicated with a fluid flow path passing through the facility to be treated. While biocide is being generated in the generator from the precursors, a carrier liquid is simultaneously circulated through the fluid flow path, including the generator, so that biocide from the generator is introduced to the carrier liquid and thereby carried from the generator through the facility to treat it. When treatment is complete, the operation of the generator and the circulation of the carrier liquid are stopped, the generator is disconnected from the facility, and the generator and precursors are transported away from the facility site in the vehicle.
