The study involves the characterization of a soil type by: capillary, permeability, retention and granulometry. Electrically polluting is done with the help of stainless steel electrodes arranged radially in a vessel. The pollutant-diesel oil product was characterized by density and viscosity. The experiment had a duration of one week and determined the degree of polluting and the influence of polluting soil on it. Also, the germinating potential on such a depolarized soil was verified.Diesel oilElectrodeSoilSymposium Proceedings
