Abstract (en)

[origin: WO03104152A1] Electrochemical wet oxidation method for hydrocarbons mixed with water or with soil, deriving from crude petroleum pumping, using a specific electrode, with regulated voltage and intensity of the direct electrical current, regulated content of sodium chloride in the water, regulated temperature of liquids during electrolysis, regulated pH value during electrolysis and neutralizing of residual oxidants with acidic sodium sulfite or sulfur dioxide, and pulverizing of soil and granulometry achieved by mechanical means or ultrasounds. This method succeeds in fully oxidizing the hydrocarbons mixed in the water and soil.
