Electrochemical Remediation Technologies for Polluted Soils, Sediments and Groundwater [PDF ebook] 

An unmatched reference on electrochemical technologies for soil,
sediment, and groundwater pollution remediation

Electrochemical technologies are emerging as important
approaches for effective and efficient pollution remediation, both
on their own and in concert with other remediation techniques.
Electrochemical Remediation Technologies for Polluted Soils,
Sediments and Groundwater provides a systematic and clear
explanation of fundamentals, field applications, as well as
opportunities and challenges in developing and implementing
electrochemical remediation technologies. Written by leading
authorities in their various areas, the text summarizes the latest
research and offers case studies that illustrate equipment,
installation, and methods employed in real-world remediations.

Divided into nine sections, the coverage includes:

* Introduction and fundamental principles

* Remediation of heavy metals and other inorganic pollutants

* Remediation of organic pollutants

* Remediation of mixed contaminants

* Electrokinetic barriers

* Integrated (coupled) technologies

* Mathematical modeling

* Economic and regulatory considerations

* Field applications and performance assessment

Unique as a comprehensive reference on the subject,
Electrochemical Remediation Technologies for Polluted Soils,
Sediments and Groundwater will serve as a valuable resource to
all environmental engineers, scientists, regulators, and
policymakers.

About the author

Krishna R. Reddy is Professor of Civil and Environmental
Engineering at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC). Dr.
Reddy received his Ph D in Civil Engineering from the Illinois
Institute of Technology, Chicago. He received gold medals for being
first in his class of BS (Civil Engineering) at Osmania University
and MS (Civil Engineering) at the Indian Institute of Technology,
Roorkee. His teaching and research expertise includes remediation
of contaminated sites, waste containment systems, and beneficial
reuse of waste/recycled materials. His research contributed to the
understanding of fundamental geochemical processes and development
of integrated electrochemical technologies to remediate contaminant
mixtures. He is the coauthor of Geoenvironmental Engineering:
Site Remediation, Waste Containment, and Emerging Waste Management
Technologies, also published by Wiley.

Claudio Cameselle is Associate Professor in the
Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Vigo,
Spain. He received his undergraduate degree and his Ph D in
chemistry at the University of Santiago de Compostela, Spain. He
then moved to the University of Vigo, where he has been working as
a faculty member for the last fourteen years. He spent a sabbatical
year as visiting professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago
in 2008. His teaching activities are in the areas of chemical
engineering and environmental engineering. In recent years, his
research activity has focused on the development of electrokinetic
remediation for the treatment of soils and sludges polluted with
heavy metals and organics.
