Remediation of polluted soils contaminated with Linear Alkyl Benzenes using Fenton's reagent

Linear Alkyl Benzenes (LABs) are used as insulating oil for electric cables. When it happens a spill, LABs they are basically sorbed in the soil, because, these compounds have high hidrophobicity and low vapor pressure. The conventional methods of treatment of soils are not efficient. The Fenton...
