SORPTION MATERIALS USED FOR REMOVAL OF ARSENIC IN DRINKING WATER
Abstract
Adsorption on a suitable adsorption material is among the most frequently used methods in water treatment. In terms of plant operation, filtration (sorption) process represents a simple, effective and economical friendly method of heavy metals removal namely for the possibility of using a large scale of substances with a sorption ability ? sorbents. Oxides, oxyhydroxides and hydroxide containing iron are among the most frequently used sorbents of the heavy metals removal. The quality of the treated water (pH, silica, phosphorus, fluorides, sulphates, chlorides, vanadium, total mineralization, iron and manganese, organic matter, etc.), redox conditions and the valency has the impacts on heavy metal removing efficiency. The objective of this work was to verify the sorption properties of granular iron-based sorption materials (CFH12, Bayoxide E33) in removal of arsenic from groundwater source Santovka. The water source in the Santovka site (HVS-9 well with a concentration of As about 18 ?g/L) and the addition of a certified reference standard so that the resulting arsenic concentration about 50 ?g/L was used in laboratory experiments.
