Decontamination of soils containing PAHs by electroremediation: A review

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2010
During the last years, the anthropogenic sources have contributed to organic compound penetration into the environment. One large group of persistent and toxic contaminants is the hydrophobic organic contaminants. Among them, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been recognized as a representative group of these pollutants with low solubility ...

Decontaminating soil organic pollutants with manufactured nanoparticles

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2016
Organic pollutants in soils might threaten the environmental and human health. Manufactured nanoparticles are capable to reduce this risk efficiently due to their relatively large capacity of sorption and degradation of organic pollutants. Stability, mobility, and reactivity of nanoparticles are prerequisites for their efficacy in soil remediation.

Solvent extraction and tandem dechlorination for decontamination of soil

Chemosphere, 2001
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) guidelines allow removal of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) from soils via solvent extraction. This option holds promise for removal of other recalcitrant organic contaminants as well. A study was undertaken to evaluate the effectiveness of solvent extraction with two tandem degradation ...

Microbiological Decontamination of Excavated Soil

1986
Micro-organisms have been used since time immemorial in the treatment of wastes, such as organic refuse and domestic and industrial waste waters. From this practice stems the use of microbial techniques for soil decontamination. The present article discusses the state of the art in the Netherlands and touches upon current and future developments in the

Chemical decontamination of PCB-contaminated soil

Chemosphere, 1997
PCB-contaminated soil was treated using the BCD (Base Catalyzed Decomposition) process to study the PCB removal performance of this process. NaHCO3 was augmented into the soil to reduce PCB concentration. It was found that PCBs underwent partial dechlorination and PCB degradation, during which organic matter in the soil performed as hydrogen donors ...
