文摘

We develop and apply a computer code to simulate an in situ soil MW-irradiation. We validate the model with lab-scale experimental data. We investigate the influence of soil properties and operating conditions on in situ effectiveness. Sandy soils and low soil moisture appeared to result in a higher effective treatment Results can be used for energy and economic studies and to designing activities.
