MULTIPHYSICS MODELING OF ELECTROKINETIC PHENOMENA IN UNSATURATED FINE–GRAINED SOILS
Summary A multiphysics model for the analysis of coupled deformation and reactive flow of pore fluids, chemical species and electric current has been developed to assess the influence of the geochemical reactions taking place within the soil mass on the effectiveness of electrokinetic remediation treatments. The results of FE simulations have shown that the presence of carbonates in the solid phase may give rise to gas production, significant changes in the degree of saturation and buffering effects with respect to the pore water pH. Under such conditions, the efficiency of the electrokinetic treatment can be significantly reduced.
