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 ...
A new double-porosity macroscopic model of bentonite free swelling
(Elsevier, 2022-08)
A macroscopic model based on a double-porosity approach is proposed to simulate the swelling caused by the subdivision of particles and aggregates that occurs when bentonites are hydrated under a high water content and low ...
Coupling of chemical and hydromechanical properties in bentonite: A new reactive transport model
(Elsevier, 2021-11)
The reactive transport framework ORCHESTRA was used to implement a dual porosity reactive transport system that accounts for mechanical processes relevant for confined swelling clays at full saturation. The new implementations ...
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 ...
Multiphysics Implementation of Electrokinetic Remediation Models for Natural Soils and Porewaters
(Elsevier, 2017)
Models of electrokinetic soil remediation systems have been developed significantly in recent decades. A wide range of physicochemical phenomena occurs in this type of process, which makes it difficult to capture all of ...
Remediation of soils polluted with 2,4-D by electrokinetic soil flushing with facing rows of electrodes: A case study in a pilot plant
(Elsevier, 2016-02-16)
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 ...
Comparison of the hydrogeochemical and mechanical behaviours of compacted bentonite using different conceptual approaches
(Elsevier, 2017-06)
This study compares the capabilities of two numerical models that simulate the behaviour of compacted saturated MX-80 bentonite exposed to different chemical environments. Both codes have different approaches: one of them ...
Multiphysics Implementation of Electrokinetic Remediation Models for Natural Soils and Porewaters
(Elsevier, 2017-01-20)
Models of electrokinetic soil remediation systems have been developed significantly in recent decades. A wide range of physicochemical phenomena occurs in this type of process, which makes it difficult to capture all of ...
Enhancing soil vapor extraction with EKSF for the removal of HCHs
(Elsevier, 2022-06)
This paper evaluates the combination of electrokinetic soil flushing (EKSF) with soil vapor extraction (SVE) for the removal of four hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) isomers contained in a real matrix. Results demonstrate that ...
Removal of oxyfluorfen from spiked soils using electrokinetic soil flushing with linear rows of electrodes
(Elsevier, 2016-06)
This study focuses on the evaluation of the electrokinetic soil flushing (EKSF) strategy to remediate soil following a simulated spill of the herbicide oxyfluorfen. EKSF is attained by placing (in the soil mockup) two rows ...
