ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is an electrokinetic soil decontamination method using closely spaced like electrode assemblies, special panel electrode configurations, an electrode emplacement process which leaves the soil in-situ, and a purge fluid conditioning and circulation process that results in reduced costs for soil decontamination. Panel electrode assemblies, tubular electrode assemblies and treatment panel assemblies are also disclosed.
