Effect of groundwater iron and phosphate on the efficacy of arsenic removal by iron-amended BioSand filters.
Naturally occurring arsenic in groundwater in Cambodia is a serious health concern. This study tested the efficacy of a BioSand filter amended with iron nails, Kanchan filter, as a household water treatment option with three natural arsenic-bearing groundwater sources of varying compositions and spiked with lab cultured E. coli and MS2. The effectiveness of arsenic and pathogen removal was not ...
متن کاملArsenic Removal from Groundwater using Ferric
Arsenic is a carcinogenic metalloid that is currently regulated in drinking water. The levels of arsenic in finished water in an existing water treatment plant are exceeding the current regulation of 10 μg/L. One of the available technologies for arsenic removal from groundwater is adsorption onto coagulated flocs and in this field, ferric chloride is the most commonly used coagulant for arseni...
متن کامل1 Arsenic removal from groundwater using iron
10 11 We demonstrate that electrocoagulation (EC) using iron electrodes can reduce arsenic 12 below 10 µg/L in synthetic Bangladesh groundwater and in real groundwater from 13 Bangladesh and Cambodia while investigating the effect of operating parameters that are 14 often overlooked, such as charge dosage rate. We measure arsenic removal performance 15 over a larger range of current density tha...
متن کاملEffect of dissolved oxygen concentration on nitrate removal from groundwater using a denitrifying submerged filter.
A unidirectional submerged filter system was employed to purify groundwater contaminated with nitrate by biological denitrification. The influence of the concentration of dissolved oxygen (DO) in the process was tested using ethanol, methanol and sucrose as carbon sources. Inorganic-nitrogen removal, growth of the biofilm, platable denitrifying bacteria and nitrate reducing bacteria in biofilm ...
متن کاملRemoval of arsenic from groundwater by electro-ultrafiltration
The objective of this study was to examine the removal of arsenic from groundwater by a laboratory scale electro-ultrafiltration (EUF) system. Two groundwater samples taken from I-Ian County located in the northeastern part of Taiwan were studied. These well waters were selected based on their As(III) and As(V) contents; the As(III) to As(V) ratios of the well water were 1.8 and 0.4 for Well-#1...
