Applications of Electro-Osmotic Dewatering

Although several applications of EOD were already mentioned in Section I, it is appropriate here to outline the ways in which EOD provides solutions to industrial problems. 

In geotechnical engineering workJ ° electro-osmotic technology is used in stabilizing embankments, dewatering foundation sites, strengthening steeply cut slopes, and increasing the capacity of steel friction piles. 

In the field of environmental engineering, electro-osmotic dewatering can be used to remove organic contaminants or toxic heavy metals from 

Some aspects of the theoretical interpretations presented here have been further developed and published recently the theory of EOD has also been applied to the electrochemical treatment of cancerous 

The form of Eq. (1) in the text implies that the dimensions of the problem (e.g., the length and cross section of a chaimel delimiting the flow) are included in the coefficients A dimensional analysis of relationship (13) in the SI unit system yields
