m, were investigated under a constant 100?V. A square configuration with electrode spacing of 2?m removed 61.5?% of As, 11.4?% of Cu, and 0.9?% of Pb, respectively, and a hexagonal configuration with the same spacing showed a higher removal efficiency in top (59?% of As, 0-.5?m) and middle (53?% of As, 0.5-.0?m) layers, but much lower removal efficiency in the bottom layer (1-.5?m), which was thought to be due to groundwater flow through periodic rise and fall of tides. Fractionation analysis showed that As bound to Fe–Mn oxyhydroxide was the main form of As removed by the electrokinetic process. The two-dimensional configuration wasted less electrical energy by Joule heating, and required fewer electrode installations, compared to the one-dimensional electrode configuration." />
