Electrokinetic flushing with surrounding electrode arrangements for the remediation of soils that are polluted with 2,4-D
(Elsevier, 2016-03)
This work aimed to evaluate electrokinetic soil flushing (EKSF) technologies for the removal of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) from spiked soils using an electrode configuration consisting of one cathode surrounded ...
Solar-powered electrokinetic remediation for the treatment of soil polluted with the herbicide 2,4-D
(Elsevier, 2016-02)
In this work, the removal of a model pesticide (2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid, 2,4-D) using Electrokinetic Soil Flushing (EKSF) powered directly by DC current or by solar panels during a 15 days long treatment has been ...
Geotechnical behaviour of low-permeability soils in surfactant-enhanced electrokinetic remediation
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)
Electrokinetic processes provide the basis of a range of very interesting techniques for the remediation of polluted soils. These techniques consist of the application of a current field in the soil that develops different ...
Removal of pesticide 2,4-D by conductive-diamond photoelectrochemical oxidation
(Elsevier, 2016-01)
In this work, the removal of pesticide 2,4-D by single photolysis, electrolysis with BDD anode and a combined UV irradiation—electrolysis is studied. Results demonstrate that although photolysis is completely inefficient ...
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 ...
Removal of oxyfluorfen from spiked soils using electrokinetic fences
(Elsevier, 2016-07)
In this work, an accidental spill of Fluoxyl (commercial herbicide containing oxyfluorfen) is simulated in a pilot plant with a soil volume of 70 × 50 × 50 cm3. The transport of Fluoxyl obtained by the free diffusion of ...
Remediation of soils polluted with 2,4-D by electrokinetic soil flushing with facing rows of electrodes
(Elsevier, 2016-02)
This study focuses on evaluating the application of electrokinetic soil flushing (EKSF) technologies to remediate soil polluted with 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D). This compound was selected as an example of polar ...
Removal of oxyfluorfen from spiked soils using electrokinetic soil flushing with the surrounding arrangements of electrodes
(Elsevier, 2016-07)
This work reports the results of a study in which the remediation of soil that undergoes an accidental discharge of oxyfluorfen is carried out by using electrokinetic soil flushing (EKSF). Two different electrode configurations ...
Removal of algae from biological cultures: a challenge for electrocoagulation?
(Wiley, 2016-01)
BACKGROUND
In the search for novel technologies for the treatment of urban wastewater, combined anaerobic–algae membrane bioreactors have become a very interesting choice. Recovery of algae produced in these reactors ...
Scale-up on electrokinetic remediation: Engineering and technological parameters
(Elsevier, 2016-09)
This study analyses the effect of the scale-up of electrokinetic remediation (EKR) processes in natural soils. A procedure is proposed to prepare soils based on a compacting process to obtaining soils with similar moisture ...
