Anotations

Scope note:

Application of an electric DC field for removal of the solubilized salt ions by electromigration. During the process, the concentrations of ions of salts will decrease as these ions concentrate around an electrode of opposite polarity. The electrodes are placed in or on the surface or on a poultice on a salt-infected material and the ions concentrate here. After the desalination the poultice is removed and thereby, the damaging ions.
