Abstract

This work used Manganese-loaded Activated Alumina (MAA) as the adsorbent to analyze the effect of column height and filtration rate on the removal of fluoride and iron ions, and clarified the fluoride removal mechanism by using dynamic experiments when the fluoride and iron in drinking water exceed the standard at the same time. The results showed that the height of the column and the filtration rate have a significant impact on the operation of the system. It was the best operating condition for the system that the filtration rate was 1m/h and the column height was 300mm. After the system run for 102 hours, the fluoride ion effluent concentration exceeded the standard, which was 1.02mg / L; the concentration of iron ions in the effluent reached the standard stably after the system run for 1 hour, and the concentration was not more than 0.18mg/L. When the filtration rate was 1m/h and the column height was 150mm, the stable running time of fluoride removal of MAA column was 2.5 times that of ordinary activated alumina (AA); the start-up time of MAA to remove iron ions was one-twelfth of AA. The effect of removing fluoride and iron by MAA was significantly better than AA.
