Conductive-Diamond Electrochemical Oxidation of Surfactant-Aided Soil-Washing Effluents
(ACS Publications, 2010)
Washing of soils polluted with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) using surfactant is a widely used technique. Once the pollutant is transferred to the washing solution, the polluted wastewater has to be treated. In ...
Combined soil washing and CDEO for the removal of atrazine from soils
(Elsevier, 2015-12)
In this work, it is studied the removal of atrazine from spiked soils by soil washing using surfactant fluids, followed by the treatment of the resulting washing waste by electrolysis with boron doped diamond anode. Results ...
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 herbicide 2,4-D using conductive-diamond sono-electrochemical oxidation
(Elsevier, 2015-07)
In this work, the depletion of herbicide 2,4-D using electrolysis and sono-electrolysis was studied in a DIACELL® 401 electrochemical cell equipped with bipolar p-Si BDD electrodes. Results show that 2,4-D can be efficiently ...
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 ...
Use of carbon felt cathodes for the electrochemical reclamation of urban treated wastewaters
(Elseveir, 2015-01)
This work focuses on the application of electrolysis with carbon felt cathodes for the reclamation of actual effluents from municipal wastewater treatment facilities (WWTFs) in combination with different anode materials ...
Feasibility Of Coupling Permeable Bio-Barriers And Electrokinetics For The Treatment Of Diesel Hydrocarbons Polluted Soils
(Elsevier, 2015-11)
In this study, the remediation of a diesel hydrocarbon-polluted clay soil using an electrochemical-biological combined technology is assessed. The polluted soil was subjected to an electrokinetic (EK) treatment with a ...
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 ...
