An analysis on the effect of the electrokinetic remediation of a soil around decommissioning site by reagent

Most nuclear facility sites have been contaminated by the leakage of a radioactive waste-solution due to the corrosion of concrete and pipes by a long-term operation of waste-solution tanks and connection pipes set up in an underground around nuclear power plant. Also, a great volume of radioactive soil has been generated due to the loss of radioactive contaminants during a long-term operation of nuclear facilities and nuclear operational accidents. Even if people's health has been threatened by a dissolution of radionuclide from such a contaminated soil, the existing soil remediation technologies have a lower removal efficiency for radionuclide. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a soil remediation technology suitable for the contamination characteristics of national nuclear facility sites
