Abstract
⺠Arsenic was separated from mine tailings waste using an electrokinetic process. ⺠30-48% of As was removed near the anode, but accumulation was found in the middle. ⺠Equilibrium modeling revealed the influence of oxalate and phosphate solutions on arsenic desorption and electromigration. ⺠Mobilization of Fe oxohydroxides and other arsenic-bearing minerals was critical to arsenic removal.
