PURPOSE In this study, a novel and ecological alternative have been developed to treat soils contaminated with hexavalent chromium coupling two well-known systems: electrokinetic remediation and permeable reactive biobarriers. The electric field promotes the electromigration of the hexavalent chromium oxyanions towards the anode. The biobarriers were placed before the anode electrode, in order ...

The removal of disulfide oil (DSO) from contaminated soil was studied by the bioremediation method and the influence of electrokinetic on the bioremediation process was investigated. The bacillus subtilis strain was used in the bioremediation process. The effects of humidity, time and DSO concentration in soil was studied. The experimental results for the bioremediation of DSO show, the removal...

Chemical structure of zinc in the electrokinetic treatments of an electroplating sludge has been studied by in situ extended X-ray absorption fine structural (EXAFS) and X-ray absorption near edge structural (XANES) spectroscopies in the present work. The least-square fitted XANES spectra indicate that the main zinc compounds in the sludge were ZnCO(3) (75%), ZnOSiO(2) (17%) and Zn(OH)(2) (7%)....

short timeframe, and rapid approaches are needed to assess log Pow values of these compounds (2,4,7). Several separation-based approaches for indirectly determining log Pow values in a rapid fashion have been reported, including reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) (2,3,8–11), thin-layer chromatography (12,13), micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) (7,14–16), and...

Electrokinetic techniques have attracted considerable attention due to their competitive advantage in enhancing transport phenomena and remediation of low permeability soils. However, many types low-permeability porous media, such as active clays like bentonite, present a double porosity structure that strongly affects mass transfer processes. In this work, we develop modeling approach simulate...

A mathematical model of an acoustoelectric transducer based on the use electrokinetic phenomenon flow potential is proposed. It shown theoretically that increases in proportion to strength constant electric pumping field, which confirmed experimentally. The described converter has variable sensitivity. Rather large values sensitivity microphone have been obtained results work can be used design...
