Electrokinetic Decontamination of Concrete

Category: Decontamination > Chemical Surface Cleaning > Electrochemical Treatment
Reference # : Model No :

An electrical field is applied to the porous concrete surface to induce migration of ionic contaminant from within the porous concrete into a decontamination unit. An electrolyte solution, present in the decontamination unit, contains various complexants as well as other material which promote formation of a soluble ionic complex of each specific contaminant. " Large Area Dry Decontamination Technology "

Benefits

•Potential cleanup of concrete surfaces without mechanical and physical damage to the concrete. •Removes contaminants diffused deeply into concrete. •No airborne particulates produced •Improved cost efficiency •Minimized generation of secondary waste •Resulting secondary waste compatible with rad waste disposal.

Limitations
