Decontamination facility

Abstract

A mobile decontamination facility vehicle comprises two or fewer interior walls; the interior walls being seamless and defining an interior space. There is at least one removable partition that defines two decontamination areas within the interior space. The facility has a drain trough disposed centrally between the interior walls for removing waste water. A waste-water tank connects to the drain for holding waste water from the decontamination areas. A sump tank connects to the waste-water tank for receiving waste water from the waste-water tank by gravity flow. The sump tank has one or more sump pumps located inside it for pumping waste water from the facility to disposal.

I claim:  
     
         1 . A decontamination facility comprising: 
 at least one interior wall; the interior wall being seamless; the interior wall defining an interior space;    a single drain; the drain running substantially the length of the interior space; and,    a waste-water tank connected to the drain for holding waste water from the decontamination areas.    
     
     
         2 . The decontamination facility of  claim 1 , further having at least one removable partition; the partition defining two decontamination areas within the interior space.  
     
     
         3 . The decontamination facility of  claim 1 , where the drain is disposed centrally between the interior walls.  
     
     
         4 . The decontamination facility of  claim 1 , further including a sump tank connected to the waste-water tank.  
     
     
         5 . The decontamination facility of  claim 4  where the sump tank receives waste water from the waste-water tank by gravity flow.  
     
     
         6 . The decontamination facility of  claim 4 , where the sump tank has one or more sump pumps located inside it for removing waste water from the sump tank.  
     
     
         7 . The decontamination facility of  claim 1  further comprising an auxiliary treatment tank disposed outside the facility.  
     
     
         8 . The decontamination facility of  claim 1 , where the facility is mobile.  
     
     
         9 . The decontamination facility of  claim 8 , where the facility further includes a sump tank; the sump tank connected to the waste-water tank.  
     
     
         10 . The decontamination facility of  claim 9  where the sump tank further includes a means for raising the sump tank for travel and for lowering the sump tank to allow gravity flow of waste water from the waste-water tank to the sump tank when the facility is in operation.  
     
     
         11 . A mobile decontamination facility vehicle, comprising: 
 two interior walls; the interior walls being seamless; the interior walls defining an interior space;    at least one removable partition; the partition defining two decontamination areas within the interior space;    one drain disposed centrally between the interior walls and running substantially the length of the facility;    a waste-water tank connected to the drain for holding waste water from the decontamination areas;    a sump tank connected to the waste-water tank for receiving waste water from the waste-water tank by gravity flow; the sump tank having one or more sump pumps located inside it; and,    the sump tank further including a means for raising the sump tank for travel and for lowering the sump tank to allow gravity flow of waste water from the waste-water tank to the sump tank when the facility is in operation.
