This study investigates the feasibility of enhanced electrokinetic Fenton process for the remediation of hexachlorobenzene (HCB) in low permeable soil. Laboratory scale experiments were carried out in two different type of experimental setup to evaluate the influence of electrode positions in the system. Kaolin was artificially contaminated with HCB and treated by electrokinetic Fenton process. β-Cyclodextrin was used to enhance the solubility of HCB in pore fluid. Results show that the position of electrodes in the system and the way in which Fenton's reagent was added to the system has a significant influence on the treatment efficiency. © 2008 Elsevier B.V.
