Download or read book Biological Ion Exchange Filters as an Alternative to Biological Activated Carbon in Drinking Water written by Nargess Amini and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Natural organic matter (NOM) removal poses a challenge to small drinking water utilities. Failure to optimize the removal of NOM and its presence in water affects the water system, thereby causing poor aesthetic quality of water with compromised taste and odor. In addition, a health concern associated with the presence of NOM in water distribution systems is the formation of carcinogenic products known as disinfectant by-products (DBPs). Besides, NOM disrupts the process of water treatment in cases such as membrane fouling and a decrease in the oxidation rate of iron and manganese. Considering the aforementioned adverse impacts of NOM, different strategies have been studied and suggested to remove NOM from water resources such as coagulation, membrane filtration, oxidation, reversible adsorption, activated carbon (AC) filtration, and ion exchange (IEX).

This book was released on 2004-03-01 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The suitability of Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) for pollutant degradation was recognised in the early 1970s and much research and development work has been undertaken to commercialise some of these processes. AOPs have shown great potential in treating pollutants at both low and high concentrations and have found applications as diverse as ground water treatment, municipal wastewater sludge destruction and VOCs control. Advanced Oxidation Processes for Water and Wastewater Treatment is an overview of the advanced oxidation processes currently used or proposed for the remediation of water, wastewater, odours and sludge. The book contains two opening chapters which present introductions to advanced oxidation processes and a background to UV photolysis, seven chapters focusing on individual advanced oxidation processes and, finally, three chapters concentrating on selected applications of advanced oxidation processes. Advanced Oxidation Processes for Water and Wastewater Treatment will be invaluable to readers interested in water and wastewater treatment processes, including professionals and suppliers, as well as students and academics studying in this area.
