EK3 Electro Kinetic System

Several industrial and municipal areas in North America are contaminated with heavy metals and petroleum products. This mixed contamination presents a particularly difficult task for remediation when dealing with clay soil. Cleanup of such contaminated sites using conventional methods such as pump-and-treat or excavation and further thermal destruction can be lengthy, expensive and in some cases ineffective.

Electrokinetics (EK), which is an emerging technology due to its applicability in low permeable soils, is a promising methodology for solving the above mentioned problems. Our team of engineers and scientists have extensive experience with electrokinetics and a great amount of success with the technology.
