Electrokinetic Remediation Coupled with CaMnO3-Catalyzed Peroxydisulfate Activation for Polychlorinated Biphenyls–Contaminated Soils

Abstract

Abstract The electrokinetic remediation (EKR) of organic contaminants has recently attracted interest due to its applicability in low-permeability soils and its suitability for large-scale applications. Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were once used as ... Practical Applications The study demonstrates the potential of the electrokinetic-persulfate method for remediating polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB)-contaminated soils. By coupling electrokinetic remediation (EKR) with CaMnO3-activated peroxydisulfate, the ... Graphical Abstract Graphical abstract illustrates an enhanced electrokinetic-persulfate (EKR-PS) remediation technique. The process flow is provided, including polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB)-contaminated soil treated with the EKR-PS remediation ...
