Feasibility of electrokinetic oxygen supply for soil bioremediation purposes
(Elsevier, 2014-12)
This paper studies the possibility of providing oxygen to a soil by an electrokinetic technique, so that the method could be used in future aerobic polluted soil bioremediation treatments. The oxygen was generated from the ...
Conductive diamond electrochemical oxidation of caffeine-intensified biologically treated urban wastewater
(Elsevier, 2015-10)
In this work, the usefulness of Conductive Diamond Electrochemical Oxidation (CDEO) to degrade caffeine in real urban wastewater matrixes was assessed. The oxidation of actual wastewater intensified with caffeine (from 1 ...
Novel electrodialysis-electrochlorination integrated process for the reclamation of treated wastewaters
(Elsevier, 2015-01)
This work presents a novel integrated process for the reclamation of wastewaters. This process combines, in the same cell, the reduction in the effluent conductivity and TOC by electrodialysis together with the production ...
Assessing the phytoremediation potential of crop and grass plants for atrazine-spiked soils
(Elsevier, 2017-10)
Pollution of soil and groundwater by atrazine has become an increasing environmental concern in the last decade. A phytoremediation test using plastic pots was conducted in order to assess the ability of several crops and ...
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 ...
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). ...
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 ...
Electrochemical removal of dimethyl phthalate with diamond anodes
(Wileu, 2014-02)
BACKGROUND
In this work, the electrolysis of dimethyl phthalate (DMP, a widely-use plasticizer) with conductive-diamond anodes is studied.
RESULTS
Results show that this technology is capable of depleting ...
