ELECTROREMEDIATION OF Cr(VI) CONTAMINATED SOIL: IDENTIFYING SCALE-UP CRITERIA

摘要

Electroremediation experiments conducted on Cr(VI) contaminated soils showed that the technique is feasible. The mechanism of electroremediation depends on soil properties, and the efficiency of remediation varies under operational conditions such as 1-D/2-D/3-D or potentiostatic / galvenostatic mode of operation etc. Hence for a techno-economic technology the scale up studies are essential and design of experiments to identify the scale up parameters are presented on the basis of experience on laboratory studies.
