  1. 1. In situ electrokinetic remediation of soil co-contaminated with trace elements and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Emma Heidrich; [2023]
    Keywords : polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons; trace elements; co-contaminated soil; electrokinetic remediation; iron electrodes;

    Abstract : Sites contaminated with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons can be simultaneously contaminated with trace elements. Co-contaminated soil is considered a complex problem since inorganic and organic contaminants behave differently and thereby often require different remediation strategies. READ MORE

  2. 2. Electrochemical oxidation of PFAS in soil conditions : Using Boron-doped diamond electrodes and iron electrodes

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Alexander Öhberg; [2022]
    Keywords : PFAS ELECTROCHEMICAL OXIDATION IN-SITU DESTRUCTION MINERALISATION REMOVAL;

    Abstract : Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a rising topic in the field of contaminated sites around the world, with destruction of these being an area in dire need of innovation. Previous experiments of destructive character have been proven efficient using boron doped diamond electrodes (BDD) in small scale electrochemical cells. READ MORE

  3. 3. Electrodialytic Remediation of PFAS-Contaminated Soil

    University essay from KTH/Vatten- och miljöteknik

    Author : Georgios Niarchos; [2018]
    Keywords : Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances; Electrokinetic; Ground; Groundwater; Treatment; Electrochemistry; Environment; Per- och polyfluoralkylsubstanser; Electrokinetisk; Grundvatten; Förorening; Elektrokemi; Miljö;

    Abstract : Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are a group of anthropogenic aliphatic compounds, widelyknown for their environmental persistence and toxicity to living beings. While they are ubiquitous in theenvironment, interest has been focused on contaminated soil, which can act as a primary recipient andsource of groundwater contamination. READ MORE

  4. 4. Electrical detection of proteins and nucleic acids using the electrokinetic effect in a silica microcapillary

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för informations- och kommunikationsteknik (ICT)

    Author : Kiarash Behnam; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Electrical detection of humanized Immunoglobulin G and single stranded DNA having different mismatched contents is presented in this thesis. For electrical detection a simple method relying on streaming current measurement in a functionalized silica capillary was used. READ MORE

  5. 5. Dielectrophoresis (DEP) and electrowetting (EWOD) as Anti-fouling processes for antibacterial surfaces

    University essay from KTH/Mikro- och nanosystemteknik

    Author : Alberto Stavros Yika Tuesta; [2014]
    Keywords : DEP; EWOD; anti-fouling methods; antibacterial;

    Abstract : Today the medical field is struggling to decrease bacteria biofilm formation which leads to infection. Also, biomedical devices sterilization has not changed over a long period of time which has resulted in high costs for hospitals healthcare managements. READ MORE
