Electrodynamic method for removing fluorine contaminant in soil

The invention discloses an electrodynamic method for removing fluorine contaminant in soil, which is as follows: an anion-exchange membrane is arranged between the anode and the contaminated soil to prevent the H+ generated by the anode from entering the electrolyzer so as to avoid the increase of the acidity of the contaminated soil; sodium acetate solution is put in an anode chamber to be used as electrolyte, deionized water is put in a cathode chamber to be used as electrolyte, and the liquid levels of the anode chamber and the cathode chamber are maintained to be parallel; in the rehabilitating process, the electrolytes circulate constantly to be stirred evenly so as to bring away the H2 and O2 which are generated by the anode and the cathode; the sodium acetate solution added in the anode chamber supplies OH- which neutralizes the H+ generated by the anode, and the surplus OH- and the OH- generated by the cathode promote the adsorbed fluorine in the soil to be desorbed to be free fluorinions; and the fluoride in the soil is removed through the electrodynamic approaches of electromigration, electroosmosis and the like. The method can effectively promote the adsorbed fluoride to be desorbed from the surface of the contaminated soil particles, remarkably improves the fluorine contaminant removal efficiency, reduces overpotential and saves energy consumption, and after the soil is rehabilitated, the pH value of the soil is basically maintained at the original state.
