Abstract:Decontamination level and residual amount of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were investigated by ex-situ remediation technologies including biopile, soil washing and thermal desorption in a field level. After the remediation, 16 USEPA priority PAHs were decontaminated from 99.3% to 99.9% for thermal desorption, from 17.9% to 82.1% for biopile and from-27.6% to 84.3% for soil washing. Residual PAHs amount in soils by thermal desorption was below the local soil screening level, differently from that by … Show more
