Abstract

Today, different pollutants are transferred into the soil due to various industrial, agricultural and human activates. Among these pollutants, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are important for environment. Extraction of pollutants in some soils, especially in fine soils, has low efficiency, so new technologies including electro kinetic remediation have to develop to remediate such soils. In addition, as electro kinetic remediation is basically for ionic pollutant and PAHs are non-ionic and non-polar, so for remediate these pollutants, modified electro kinetic should be used. In this research Naphthalene (2 benzene rings), Anthracene (3 benzene rings) and Benzo (a) Pyren (5 benzene rings) removal by non-uniform AC field with different frequencies is assessed. Results showed that the maximum removal for Naphthalene accrued at 1 Hz (30%), for Anthracene at 1 Hz and 1 MHz (10%) and for Benzo (a) Pyren at 1 MHz (47%).
