Biological permeable reactive barriers coupled with electrokinetic soil flushing for the treatment of diesel-polluted clay soil
(Elsevier, 2015-02)
Removal of diesel from spiked kaolin has been studied in the laboratory using coupled electrokinetic soil flushing (EKSF) and bioremediation through an innovative biological permeable reactive barriers (Bio-PRBs) positioned ...
Effect of the cathode material on the removal of nitrates by electrolysis in non-chloride media
(Elsevier, 2012-04)
In this work, the effect of the cathode material (conductive diamond, stainless steel, silicon carbide, graphite or lead) and the current density (150–1400 A m−2) on the removal of nitrates from aqueous solutions is studied ...
Electrokinetic remediation of soil polluted with insoluble organics using biological permeable reactive barriers
(Elservier, 2016-09)
This study investigated the remediation of clay soil polluted with low-solubility organics (diesel hydrocarbons) using a combined electrochemical-biological technology. Electrokinetic soil flushing was used, coupled with ...
Performance of a Vapor-Fed Polybenzimidazole (PBI)-Based Direct Methanol Fuel Cell
(American Chemical Society, 2008)
A high-temperature vapor-fed direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) has been implemented using H3PO4-doped polybenzimidazole (PBI) as the electrolyte. The influence of the cell temperature, the methanol concentration, and the ...
Removal of nitrates from spiked clay soils by coupling electrokinetic and permeable reactive barrier technologies
(Wiley, 2015-09)
BACKGROUND
This work aims to describe the removal of a model anion (nitrate) from clay soils using electrokinetically assisted soil flushing coupled with permeable reactive barriers consisting of beds of anion exchange ...
Combination of bioremediation and electrokinetics for the in-situ treatment of diesel polluted soil
(Elsevier, 2015-11)
The aim of this work is to compare different strategies based on electrokinetic soil flushing and bioremediation for the remediation of diesel-polluted soil. Four options were tested at the laboratory scale: single ...
Electrokinetic transport of diesel-degrading microorganisms through soils of different textures using electric fields
(Taylor & Francis Group, 2012-01-13)
The mobilisation of diesel-degrading microorganisms in soils of three different textures (sandy, clay and silty) using electrokinetic techniques was studied. The mobilisation tests were performed using a laboratory-scale ...
Treatment of Cu/Zn wastes by combined PSU–electrodeposition processes
(Elsevier, 2013-02)
This work is focused on the study of the electrodeposition stage of a combined polymer-supported ultrafiltration (PSU)–electrodeposition process for the recovery and selective separation of Cu/Zn mixtures. With this aim, ...
Costs estimation of an integrated process for the treatment of heavy-metal loaded aqueous effluents
(Springer, 2011-09)
This work aims at providing a guide for the calculation of investment and operation costs of a process to treat diluted streams of heavy metal ions. This process is composed of two stages: (1) a metal concentration stage ...
Removal of 2,4,6-Trichlorophenol from Spiked Clay Soils by Electrokinetic Soil Flushing Assisted with Granular Activated Carbon Permeable Reactive Barrier
(American Chemical Society, 2014)
In this work, it is studied the removal of 2,4,6 trichlorophenol (TCP) from synthetic polluted soils using Electrokinetic Soil Flushing (EKSF) assisted with a Granular Activated Carbon- Permeable Reactive Barrier (GAC-PBR). ...
