Effects of stirrups on electrochemical chloride removal efficiency

Electrochemical Chloride Extraction and Inhibitor Injection in Salt-Contaminated Repair Mortar

“…In this context, a good evaluation of the electrochemical treatment (e.g., coupled ECE and EICI) the rebar, which is consistent with previous modeling studies [18,48] and highlights the need for different electrode configurations [18,49,50] to enhance the chloride removal from severely contaminated mortars.…”

Chloride Electroremediation in reinforced structures: preliminary electrochemical tests to detect the steel repassivation during the treatment

“…Only in special cases, the treatment will be limited to specifically corroding areas. The design of chloride extraction should be based on the amount and distribution of reinforcing steel and on the chloride profile present [34][35][36]. Using this information, the anode system, the process parameters, and the testing procedure for final acceptance are chosen.…”

Efficiency of Different Electrolytes on Electrochemical Chloride Extraction to Recover Concrete Structures under Chloride Induced Corrosion

“…The setup to perform ECE has many particularities that can significantly affect its efficiency [7,[15][16][17]. Three major variables play an important role during the chloride removal process: the direct current, the electrolyte solution and the external anode, therefore the choice over them is of great importance and guidelines suggest some options, different from each other [19][20][21]. [6] The chloride extraction rate is mostly measured considering the total concentration of ions in the bulk concrete, rather than chloride profiles at different depths of the cover concrete, www.videleaf.com although profiles may provide more direct and clear information on modified concentrations under electric charge, considering the penetration depths [22][23][24][25][26].…”
