Abstract
Modelling of the soil decontamination rate is developed for the case of an electrokinetic remediation run under controlled pH conditions. This model is based on a simple expression of the electrokinetic velocity of ionic species, including some parameters depending on the soil and pollutant species. Laboratory experiments run on kaolinite, using some cations as contaminant models fit well the theoretical calculations.
