Lab-scale investigation on remediation of diesel-contaminated aquifer using microwave energy

Remediation of Diesel Contaminated Soils Using Surfactants: Coulumn Study

This study presents the experimental remediation studies of diesel contaminated soil with Sodium Deducible Sulfate (SDS) as surfactants using column tests. Sandy selected soil had the grain size distribution of # 40 meshes to the # 200 mesh range. The soil columns were contaminated with adequate diesel amount to achieve the concentration of 10000 and 20000 ppm in soil. 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 percen...

In Situ Biological Uranium Remediation within a Highly Contaminated Aquifer

Remediation of Lead-Contaminated Soil, Using Clean Energy in Combination with Electro-Kinetic Methods

The present study aims at investigating the feasibility of using solar energy as a power source to run electro-kinetic remediation in order to clean-up lead from three types of Iraqi soil. In order to do so, it carries out six tests with enhancement conditions, involving pH control and injection wells. Conducted in the city of Baghdad, Iraq, the experiment, is divided into two groups so that th...

Remediation of Contaminated Sites

Oil pollution in the environment is now being taken seriously by the oil industries and as such, these companies are always looking for cost-effective methods of dealing with this pollution. The global environment is under great stress due to urbanization and industrialization as well as population pressure on the limited natural resources. The problems are compounded by drastic changes that ha...
