TREATMENT OF SOILS CONTAMINATED WITH HYDROCARBONS USING WASTE AND USE OF PERMEAVE REACTIVE BARRIERS
Soil and groundwater pollution is a problem that affects developed and developing countries due to acceleratedindustrialization and urbanization in the last decades. In this context, the aim of the present thesis is to use combined technologies (soil washing in pre-pilot system on a laboratory scale and on a pre-pilot scale using a fixed bed column, investigating the use of anionic, cationic and nonionic surfactants. the use of reactive permeable barriers of cork in order to remove the organic compounds in the fixed bed column in laboratory scale and pre-pilot.However, another important parameter to be studied is the treatment of the effluent generated during the process of washing the soil, for this reason will be investigated the advanced electrochemical oxidative processes, in order to remove the organic compounds present.
