The invention is a process for starting up a wet oxidation system using essentially pure oxygen for oxidation of a concentrated wastewater. Flow of startup water and air is established through the wet oxidation system at an elevated temperature and pressure. An incremental increase in flow of oxygen and wastewater to the system commences while simultaneously an incremental decrease in flow of startup water and air occurs, raising system temperature in a controlled fashion. The incremental changes in flows are repeated until the wastewater and pure oxygen have reached about 100 percent of selected operating flows the startup, water and air flows have decreased to zero and the system has, …

Why it's free to use
- Filed March 2, 1993. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended March 2, 2013.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by March 2, 2015.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
