The present invention includes a method of treating solid earthen material having volatile, semi-volatile, and non-volatile contaminants that utilizes electrical energy. A plurality of electrodes are inserted into a region of earthen material to be treated in a selected geometric pattern. Varying phase and voltages configurations are applied to corresponding electrodes to achieve heating, physical phase changes, and the placement of substances within the treatment region. Additionally, treatment mediums can be added to either treat the contamination within the soil or to restrict their mobility.

Heating of solid earthen material, measuring moisture and resistivity

An adjustable support-and-suspension bracket designed particularly for use with a mounting structure, such as an I.V. pole system, wherein the bracket is defined by a clamp body having a head portion, an opening to receive a mounting structure, and a clamping device disposed within the body. There is attached to the head portion a pair of oppositely positioned support arms which extend outwardly therefrom to allow various devices to be supported or suspended. The clamping device comprises a threaded stud having a knob on one end thereof, the threaded stud being rotatably mounted in a housing formed in the clamp body. A threaded clamping sleeve is mounted to the threaded stud for longitudinal movement as the stud is rotated. When the threaded stud is rotated in the proper direction, the clamping sleeve is extended so that the mounting structure is tightly clamped within the body opening.
