Abstract

An apparatus and method for the treatment of contaminants in a contaminated fluid are described. The apparatus comprises a containment volume through which fluid to be treated can be passed in use; particulate organo/inorgano clay selected to provide a reactive medium for chemically binding with the contaminants; and a slurry disperser to cause particulate organo/inorgano clays to form, in use, a fluidised dispersion within the volume the apparatus by forming a suspension of particulate reactive clay in a suitable suspension liquid and passing this into the volume to form, in use, a dispersed mist within the volume.
