Influence of electrokinetic processing of a tropical soil on the PHs of the electrolytes

The pH values of different anolytes and catholytes during electrokinetic (EK) processing of a tropical residual soil were investigated in laboratory. Four opened-anode and opened-cathode systems with different types of catholytes and anolytes were examined. Aluminium chloride, calcium chloride and p...
