Evaluation of Performance of Sono 3-Kolshi Filter for Arsenic Removal from Groundwater Using Zero Valent Iron Through Laboratory and Field Studies

نویسنده

  • A. K. M. MUNIR
چکیده

A three-pitcher (locally known as ‘3-Kolshi’) water filtration system made from locally available materials was tested for its efficacy in removing arsenic, other trace metals and anions from the groundwater of Bangladesh and the disposal of the filtering materials after the breakthrough was studied. In this filter, the first Kolshi has cast iron turnings, and sand, the second Kolshi has wood charcoal and sand as the active ingredients. About 6000 L of groundwater containing 8
