The presence of arsenic in groundwater posed a grave threat to human health. Prolonged exposure to arsenic can lead to skin cancer [1].Among arsenic species, As(III) stood out as the primary pollutant [2].Since the pH of groundwater was typically between 7 and 8.7, [3], [4] the As(III) primarily existed in the molecular form of H 3 AsO 3 in the solution, whereas the …
Exceptional adsorption capacities for arsenic are retained over a wide pH range, and high selectivity for As (V) is realized even in the presence of co-existing anions. The arsenic adsorption performance correlates to the …

As demonstrated in Figure 8, increasing the alkalinity resulted in an increase in the arsenic removal rate until reaching its maximum value and flattening out at an alkalinity of 2.42, where a concentrate containing 0.12% As was created with an iron recovery rate of 92.53%. When the alkalinity ranged from the origin to 2.16, there was a reduced ...
1. Introduction. Arsenic (As) contamination in groundwater poses a global threat to human health. An estimated 94−220 million people worldwide are exposed to unsafe As levels (>10 μg/L per WHO guideline) by ingesting groundwater that has received no or ineffective treatment (Podgorski and Berg, 2020).Arsenicosis is frequently diagnosed in rural s …
The Eurotec s.r.l. company (now RWL Water) realized two arsenic removal plants in correspondence with the arrival of the two galleries. The Cantanghel plant has been re-dimensioned in order to manage incoming flows up to a maximum of 100 l/s, while the Ponte Alto plant has been sized for a capacity of 50 l/s.
Groundwater arsenic (As) contamination is a severe drinking water quality problem and a threat to human health in Bangladesh and other countries (Smedley and Kinniburgh, 2002, Chakraborti et al., 2013).Chronic exposure to As-contaminated drinking water has resulted in tens of millions of people suffering from skin lesions, hyperkeratosis, melanosis, skin cancer, and …
Arsenic is the 20th highest natural metalloid found in the earth's crust (atomic number 33), and it is commonly recognized for adversity on human and marine animals (Yin et al., 2017).Arsenic has a (74.9 g·mol–1)atomic weight, (5.73 g·cm–3) specific gravity, boiling and melting point of 614 °C and 817 °C respectively and it occurs as a hard and breakable …
The arsenic removal is 99.24% at (NH 4) 2 CO 3 concentration of 96 g/L. Considering the cost and the efficiency of arsenic removal, (NH 4) 2 CO 3 concentration of 48 g/L is selected for the following experiments. Correspondingly, the effect of MgSO 4 concentration on the arsenic removal is shown in Fig. 11.
The effectiveness of arsenic removal from As(V) solutions using granular activated carbon (GAC) (zero point of charge (ZPC) pH 3.2) and iron incorporated GAC (GAC-Fe) (ZPC pH 8.0) was studied at 25 ± 1 °C. The batch study confirmed that GAC-Fe had higher Langmuir adsorption capacity at pH 6 (1.43 mg As/g) than GAC (1.01 mg As/g). ...
Bioadsorption mediated arsenic removal potentialities were optimized by using various dosages of bacterial biomasses (250–1250 µg/mL) in different pH (2.0 - 11) and …
Roxarsone (ROX), a typical organic arsenic feed additive, has been widely used for decades to control coccidian intestinal parasites and improve feed efficiency in broiler poultry [1], [2].Organic arsenic hardly undergoes any chemical changes in animals, and most ROX is directly excreted with manure, thus entering the environment [3], [4].Organic arsenic is highly …
Arsenic is such a toxic pollutant present in natural waters like surface and sub subsurface water sources. The presence of arsenic is becoming a greater threat to the survival of human beings and other useful micro-organisms. There are various technologies are available to remove arsenic from groundwater.
In this study, it was found that ∼ arsenic removal was achieved in all three systems through pH adjustment (taking pH 6 as the example), and their performance was negligibly affected by the common water matrix (e.g., Cl-and HA) (Fig. 7 c). The removal of total arsenic in these Fe-based oxidation systems was higher than that by Fe(II ...
Arsenic Removal in Bangladesh: RO and NF are deployed extensively in Bangladesh to address arsenic contamination in groundwater, providing safe drinking water to millions.
