G. aThe use of electrochemcial process in soil decontamination. c1999 aThe electrochemical remediation of soils involves the application of a low direct current (on the order of mA/cm2) or low electrical potential gradient (V/cm) to a pair of positive and negative electrodes. In the presence of water, or any other specific electrolyte, the process results in migration of ions toward the electrode of opposite charge, where the contaminants under the action of the electric field are transported to the anode or the cathode and subsequently remoed for ex-situ treatment.1 aBERTUCCI-NETO, V.1 aAVACA, L.
