Abstract:
1. A system for remediating an immiscible pollutant comprising: a cryogenic fluid source adapted for providing a condensed-phase cryogenic fluid; a cryogenic fluid transport structure coupled to the cryogenic fluid source adapted for transporting the cryogenic fluid; a low pressure applicator coupled to the cryogenic fluid transport structure adapted for dispensing the cryogenic fluid in a substantially condensed phase, wherein the low pressure applicator comprises a drizzle bar comprising at least one hole array; a collector adapted for capturing at some of the immiscible pollutant after exposure to the cryogenic fluid; and a storage structure, coupled to the collector, adapted for storing the immiscible pollutant.
