  1. Electrochemical Processes for In-situ Treatment of Contaminated Soils Principle Investigator: C. P. Huang Co-Investigator: Daniel Cha Graduate Research Assistants: Jih-Hsing Chang Zhimin Qiang Menghau Sung Louis Cheng University of Delaware, Newark, DE 19716

  2. I. INTRODUCTION Typical contaminants in DOE soils include PCE, TCE, CHCl3, CCl4, PAHs and heavy metals such as Cu(II), Pb(II), As(V), Cr(VI), and Zn(II). Effective in-situ remediation technologies are urgently needed.

  3. II. OBJECTIVES To develop electrochemical processes for the in-situ treatment of contaminated soils. To study the mobilization of selected organics from soils by the electro-kinetic (EK) process. To study the oxidation of selected organics by the electro-Fenton process. To understand the mechanisms of the oxidation of selected organics by the electro-Fenton process.
