Concerns
There is a concern that as a contaminant becomes heated, it may leak outside of the area of the thermal blanket. Therefore, the blanket must completely cover the contaminated area and have a strong enough vacuum to prohibit the spread of contaminations.
Incomplete destruction of contaminants may lead to the introduction of dioxins and furans into the air.
This method has not been effectively tested on organic contaminants.
