Batch and column experiments were conducted to examine the capability of naturally formed hematite and siderite to remove As from drinking water. Results show that both minerals were able to remove As from aqueous solutions, but with different efficiencies. In general, each material removed arsenate much more efficiently than As–DMA (dimethylarsinic acid), with the lowest adsorption efficiency for arsenite. The best removal efficiency for As species was obtained using a hematite, with a grain size range between 0.25 and 0.50 mm. The adsorption capacity for inorganic As(V) reached 202 μg/g. The pH generally had a great impact on the arsenate removal by the Fe minerals studied, while arsenite removal was slightly dependent on the initial pH of between 3 and 10. The presence of phosphate always had a negative effect on arsenate adsorption, due to competitive adsorption between them. A column packed with hematite in the upper half and siderite in the lower half with a grain size range of 0.25–0.5 mm proved to be an efficient reactive filter for the removal of all As species, causing a decrease in As concentration from 500 μg/L (including 200 μg/L As(V) as arsenate, 200 μg/L As(III) as arsenite and 100 μg/L As(V) as DMA) to less than 10 μg/L after 1055 pore volumes of water were filtered at a flow rate of 0.51 mL/min. After 2340 pore volumes passed through the column filter, the total inorganic As in the effluent was less than 5 μg/L. The total As load in the column filter was estimated to be 0.164 mg/g. Results of μ-synchrotron X-ray fluorescence analysis (μ-XRFA) suggest that coatings of fresh Fe(III) oxides, formed on the surface of the siderite grains after two weeks of operation, greatly increased the adsorption capacity of the filling material towards As.  相似文献

Although natural siderite has been investigated to remove both As(III) and As(V), it has relatively low adsorption rate and capacity. It is crucial to enhance its adsorption characteristics for As removal prior to being used in practical application. Modified granular natural siderite (MGNS) was fabricated through addition of organic binder, extrusion granulation and calcination, and evaluated for adsorption characteristics by means of batch and column tests. Results showed that MGNS had higher adsorption rate and capacity for As(III) in comparison with natural siderite. Arsenic(III) adsorption achieved equilibrium at 24 h, with adsorption capacity of 9.43 mg/g estimated from Langmuir isotherm at 25 °C. Column tests showed that there was less difference in total As loads in MGNS-packed filters for As(III)-spiked deionized water, As(III)-spiked tap water, and real-world high-As groundwater. The coexistence of anions had no significant effect on As adsorption in both batch and column experiments. Results of XRD, SEM and BET analysis indicated that MGNS, as an Fe(II)/(III) hybrid system, had a much larger specific surface area relative to the pristine natural siderite due to massive spherical aggregates attaching to the siderite matrix. XANES spectra showed that As(V) was the major species in the adsorbent after As(III) adsorption. Its proportion in total As slightly increased with the increase in contact time. Adsorption and heterogeneous oxidation of As(III) were believed to be the main mechanisms of As(III) removal by MGNS. This study suggested that MGNS is a potential adsorbent for effectively removing As from As-contaminated groundwater in filter application.  相似文献

Groundwater arsenic(As)contamination is a hot issue,which is severe health concern worldwide.Recently,many Fe-based adsorbents have been used for As removal from solutions.Modified granular natural siderite(MGNS),a special hybrid Fe(II)/Fe(III)system,had higher adsorption capacity for As(III)than As(V),but the feasibility of its application in treating high-As groundwater is still unclear.In combination with transport modeling,laboratory column studies and field pilot tests were performed to reveal both mechanisms and factors controlling As removal by MGNS-filled filters.Results show that weakly acid pH and discontinuous treatment enhanced As(Ⅲ)removal,with a throughput of 8700 bed volumes(BV)of 1.0 mg/L As(Ⅲ)water at breakthrough of 10 μg/L As at pH 6.Influent HCO_3~-inhibited As removal by the filters.Iron mineral species,SEM and XRD patterns of As-loading MGNS show that the important process contributing to high As(Ⅲ)removal was the mineral transformation from siderite to goethite in the filter.The homogeneous surface diffusion modeling(HSDM)shows that competition between As(III)and HCO_3~-with adsorption sites on MGNS was negligible.The inhibition of HCO_3~-on As(Ⅲ)removal was connected to inhibition of siderite dissolution and mineral transformation.Arsenic loadings were lower in field pilot tests than those in the laboratory experiments,showing that high concentrations of coexisting anions(especially HCO_3~-and SiO_4~(4-)),high pH,low EBCT,and low groundwater temperature decreased As removal.It was suggested that acidification and aeration of highAs groundwater and discontinuous treatment would improve the MGNS filter performance of As removal from real high-As groundwater.  相似文献

A two-column reactor was designed to remove dissolved As and Cd from contaminated water. The reactor functions by equilibrating the targeted water with CO2 and directing it via saturated flow through a column of crushed siderite. This results in siderite dissolution and an increase in dissolved Fe(II). The feedwater is then directed into the top of a second, aerated column of crushed limestone, where it passes by unsaturated flow. The Fe2+ ion oxidizes quickly to Fe3+ and precipitates as Fe(III) oxyhydroxide, which is an effective sorbent of AsO43−. The aeration that occurs in the second column also removes dissolved CO2 from the feedwater. This causes precipitation of Ca and Cd carbonates. Together, the two processes reduce As and Cd concentrations from 1 and 3 mg/l, respectively, to below detection (respectively <0.005 and <0.01 mg/l). A time-limited reduction in Cr concentration also occurred. Much of the As was removed in the first column of the reactor, because Fe(III) oxyhydroxides also formed there. This was due to oxidation of Fe(II) by Cr(VI) and other oxidants present in the input wastewater. Although As is removed in the reactor columns by a sorption mechanism, the sorbent responsible, Fe(III) oxyhydroxide, is continuously produced during the operation of the reactor. Thus, unlike attenuation in a system with a fixed amount of sorbent, breakthrough of the As contaminant should never occur.  相似文献

This work addresses the inter-conversion and sorption of inorganic As species in representative geological media. Through the sensitive quantification of As(III) and As(V) with liquid chromatography–inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry, and through integrated batch and column approaches, it is shown that natural media can either reduce or oxidize As species. Oxidation of As(III) to As(V) is shown in the Hanford sediment, while reduction of As(V) to As(III) is shown for the surface soil of Savannah River Site. Overall, the sorption distribution coefficient of As(V) onto geological media is much larger than that of As(III), and a reduction of the more sorptive As(V) to As(III) will lead to groundwater enrichment with As. Coupled with the different sorption behavior of As(III) and As(V), the inter-conversion of these species will strongly affect the geochemical cycling of redox-sensitive As in the subsurface.  相似文献

This paper describes the mobilization and speciation of As found in hydrothermally altered rock under oxic column conditions. The altered rock sample was obtained from a tunnel project located in the Nakakoshi area of Hokkaido, Japan, whose geology is represented by slate, shale and sandstone. This area has undergone silicification, pyritization and argillic alteration resulting in As-enrichment of the rock. Results of the column experiments show that the infiltration rate, bulk density and rock bed thickness affected the duration of water residence, which in turn influenced the pH of the rock–water system. Coexisting ions most notably Ca2+ at amounts greater than ca. 50 mg/L retarded the mobilization of As. Mobilization of As from the rock with time occurred in two stages: stage 1 (weeks 1–20) with higher As leaching and stage 2 (weeks 20–76) characterized by nearly constant As release. In addition, pore water As concentrations revealed that the columns developed into two regions: the top half where most of the leaching occurred and the bottom part dominated by adsorption. Thus, the mechanism controlling the mobilization of As from the rock is a combination of one or more of the following processes: dissolution of soluble As-bearing fractions, pyrite oxidation and adsorption reactions. Arsenite (As[III]) was the dominant species in the effluent at the start of the experiment in columns with shorter water residence time and lower pH conditions (<8). On the other hand, arsenate (As[V]) was the major inorganic species released from the rock at higher pH (8–9.5) and when the system was close to equilibrium. Speciation of As with depth also indicated that As[III] disappeared around the bottom half of the columns, probably as a result of adsorption and/or oxidation. Arsenic speciation is partially controlled by the pH dependent adsorption of As species. The important adsorbent phases in the rock included Fe–Al oxides/oxyhydroxides, clay minerals and organic matter, which permitted the columns to attenuate additional As loadings including As[III]. Implications of these results on the design of a novel disposal method for these altered rocks include the enhancement of As adsorption through the addition of natural or artificial adsorbents and the utilization of a covering soil with low permeability to minimize rainwater infiltration into the rock.  相似文献

河岸带作为一种典型的地下水-地表水相互作用带,不同水动力学条件下砷在该作用带中的行为较少有研究报道。基于此,采集河岸带河砂开展室内柱试验,分析不同水动力因素(包括流速和粒径)对砷在河砂中迁移的影响并建立相关模型。结果表明:(1) 0.5 mL/min流速下,河砂对As(V)的吸附速度和达到平衡所需的时间均比As(III)快,且粒径越小,该现象越明显;1.0 mL/min流速下,不同粒径的河砂对As(V)的吸附速度随粒径的增大而增大,对As(III)的吸附则没有明显差异;(2) 相同粒径的填充柱中,河砂对As(III)和As(V)的吸附能力均随流速的增加而降低;(3)不同流速和粒径条件下,As(III)和As(V)在砂柱中的迁移过程均更符合Thomas模型,拟合R2高于相同条件下Yoon-Nelson和Adams-Bohart模型。其中,低流速下,Thomas模型对0.15~0.25 mm粒径中As(III)和As(V)迁移过程拟合的R2(≥0.94)显著优于1.00~2.00 mm的较大粒径;高流速下,该模型对不同粒径中砷迁移过程的拟合R2差异不大。研究有助于加深对地下水-地表水相互作用下水动力因素对砷迁移转化规律影响的认识,并丰富和完善高砷地下水形成的机制理论。  相似文献

 Adsorption/desorption and oxidation/reduction of arsenic at clay surfaces are very important to the natural attenuation of arsenic in the subsurface environment. Although numerous studies have concluded that iron oxides have high affinities for the adsorption of As(V), very little experimental work has addressed the arsenic attenuation capacities of different clay minerals and aging process affecting the transformation of arsenic. The abundance of clay minerals in a variety of geochemical environments and their influence on adsorption of contaminants suggests a need for more experimental work to characterize the adsorption desorption, and oxidation of arsenic on clay minerals. In this investigation three types of clay mineral were studied: the 1 : 1 layer clays [halloysite (IN), sedimentary M-kaolinite, and weathered EPK-kaolinite]; the 2 : 1 layer clays [illite (MT) and illite/montmorillonite (MT)]; the 2 :>: 1 layer clay [chlorite (CA)]. The halloysite and the chlorite had much greater As(V) adsorption (25–35 folds) than the other clay minerals. The clay minerals had lower As(III) adsorption than As(V) adsorption, and the adsorption was affected by pH. Desorption of arsenic from the clay minerals was significantly influenced by the aging process. The quantities of extractable As(III) and As(V) decreased with increasing aging time. The results demonstrated that oxidation of As(III) to As(V) occurred on the clay surfaces, whereas reduction of As(V) to As(III) was not found in any of the clay minerals studied. The oxidation of As(III) was affected by the types of clay and aging time. Received: 22 March 1999 · Accepted: 15 April 1999  相似文献

Arsenic is present in aqueous environments in +III and +V oxidation states. In oxidizing environments, the principle attenuation mechanism of As migration is its adsorption on Fe(III) oxide and hydroxides. The adsorption affinity is higher for As(V) under lower pH conditions and for As(III) under higher pH conditions. Ferric oxide and hydroxides can dissolve under low Eh and pH conditions releasing adsorbed As. Oxidation-reduction processes often involve high organic matter content in sediments and also contamination by organics such as BTEX. Arsenic may desorb under high pH conditions. Changes of pH can be related to some redox reactions, cation exchange reactions driving dissolution of carbonates, and dissolution of silicates. In very reducing environments, where SO4 reduction takes place, secondary sulfide minerals like As-bearing pyrite and orpiment, As2S3, can incorporate As. Geochemical modeling can be divided into two principal categories: (a) forward modeling and (b) inverse modeling. Forward modeling is used to predict water chemistry after completion of predetermined reactions. Inverse modeling is used to suggest which processes take place along a flowpath. Complex coupled transport and geochemistry programs, which allow for simulation of As adsorption, are becoming available. A common modeling approach is based on forward modeling with surface complexation modeling (SCM) of As adsorption, which can incorporate the effect of different adsorbent/As ratios, adsorption sites density, area available for adsorption, pH changes and competition of As for adsorption sites with other dissolved species such as phosphate. The adsorption modeling can be performed in both batch and transport modes in codes such as PHREEQC. Inverse modeling is generally used to verify hypotheses on the origin of As. Basic prerequisites of inverse modeling are the knowledge of flow pattern (sampling points used in model have to be hydraulically connected) and information about mineralogy including As mineral phases. Case studies of geochemical modeling including modeling of As adsorption are presented.  相似文献

The transport mechanisms of As from contaminated soil or irrigation water into roots and subsequently into grain, and the As species distribution—a toxicity determinant, is critical for assessing health risks imposed by As. However, the commonly-employed extraction of plant material with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) has not proven successful in preserving inorganic As species. Synchrotron-based spectroscopic techniques are useful for discerning elemental distributions and chemical speciation of elements in situ. Here, we both characterize the mineral phases of Fe coatings on rice roots, and quantify plant nutrients and As species in situ on roots and grain samples. Arsenic in rice grains was present in bran layers as oxidized As (69-88% as As(V)i and 12-31% as DMA) and in the germ as a mixture of As(V)i and As(III)i, but was non-detected from the endosperm, which is consistent with previous findings. The extent of Fe coatings on rice roots was variable and, when present, consisted of lepidocrocite (γ-FeOOH), goethite (α-FeOOH) and ferrihydrite (Fe(OH)3·nH2O). Arsenic was co-located with root Fe coatings, but our findings indicate that Fe is not a direct interceptor of As uptake, and is rather a bulk scavenger mostly near the air-water interface. On whole root mounts with Fe plaque, arsenic was present as mixed species of As(V)i (44-66%) and As(III)i (34-56%). Within a root cross-section, oxidized As species were dominant in the xylem (86% as As(V)i and 14% as DMA) whereas mostly reduced species (71% as As(III)i, 29% as AsGlu3) resided within a vacuole adjacent to the xylem. This finding contrasts the prevailing view that As(V)i is rapidly reduced in roots and transported to shoots as As(III)i, and points to the importance of interspecies differences in As-uptake dynamics.  相似文献

Published literature on preservation procedures for stabilizing aqueous inorganic As(III/V) redox species contains discrepancies. This study critically evaluates published reports on As redox preservation and explains discrepancies in the literature. Synthetic laboratory preservation experiments and time stability experiments were conducted for natural water samples from several field sites. Any field collection procedure that filters out microorganisms, adds a reagent that prevents dissolved Fe and Mn oxidation and precipitation, and isolates the sample from solar radiation will preserve the As(III/V) ratio. Reagents that prevent Fe and Mn oxidation and precipitation include HCl, H2SO4, and EDTA, although extremely high concentrations of EDTA are necessary for some water samples high in Fe. Photo-catalyzed Fe(III) reduction causes As(III) oxidation; however, storing the sample in the dark prevents photochemical reactions. Furthermore, the presence of Fe(II) or SO4 inhibits the oxidation of As(III) by Fe(III) because of complexation reactions and competing reactions with free radicals. Consequently, fast abiotic As(III) oxidation reactions observed in the laboratory are not observed in natural water samples for one or more of the following reasons: (1) the As redox species have already stabilized, (2) most natural waters contain very low dissolved Fe(III) concentrations, (3) the As(III) oxidation caused by Fe(III) photoreduction is inhibited by Fe(II) or SO4.  相似文献

At the abandoned As mine in Nishinomaki, Japan, discharged water from the mining and waste dump area is acidic and rich in As. However, the As concentration in the drainage has been decreased to below the maximum contaminant level (0.01 mg/l for drinking water, Japan) without any artificial treatments before mixing with a tributary to populated areas. This implies that the As concentration in water from the waste dump area has been naturally attenuated. To elucidate the reaction mechanisms of the natural attenuation, analysis of water quality and characterization of the precipitates from the stream floor were performed by measuring pH, ORP and electric conductivity on-site, as well as X-ray diffraction, ICP-mass spectrometry and ion-chromatography. Selective extractions and mineral alteration experiments were also conducted to estimate the distribution of As in constituent phases of the precipitates and to understand the stability of As-bearing phases, respectively. The water contamination resulted from oxidation of sulfide minerals in the waste rocks, i.e., the oxidation of pyrite and realgar and subsequent release of Fe, SO4, As(V) and proton. The released Fe(II) transformed to Fe(III) by bacterial oxidation; schwertmannite then formed immediately. While the As concentrations in the stream were lowered nearly to background level downstream, those in the ochreous precipitates were up to several tens of mg/g. The As(V) was effectively removed by the formed schwertmannite and had been naturally attenuated. Although schwertmannite is metastable with respect to goethite, the experiments show that the transformation of schwertmannite to goethite may be retarded by the presence of absorbed As(V) in the structure. Therefore, the attenuation of As in the drainage and the retention of As by schwertmannite are expected to be maintained for the long term.  相似文献

我国高砷地下水分布广泛,是受砷污染最严重的地区之一,严重危害居民身体健康,开发经济、高效、环境友好的高砷地下水修复治理技术极具必要性。以大同盆地、呼包平原、河套平原和银川平原为代表性研究区域,归纳总结了北方干旱、半干旱地区典型高砷地下水区水化学特征。通常情况下,高砷地下水的pH值较高,共存阴离子(HCO-3、SO2-4和Cl-)浓度较大,溶解性有机碳含量较高,并且As(Ⅲ)为主要砷形态。开展了针对北方典型高砷地下水特定水化学环境特点(如pH值、共存阴阳离子以及溶解性有机物等)的改性天然菱铁矿除砷性能研究。结果表明,改性天然菱铁矿对溶液pH值具有良好的缓冲能力,其除砷性能基本不受pH值、共存阴离子、Ca/Mg阳离子及以腐殖酸为代表的溶解性有机物等典型高砷地下水水化学特征因素的影响,表明吸附剂对砷具有良好的吸附选择性。另外,改性天然菱铁矿对As(Ⅲ)的去除效果优于对As(V)的去除效果,因此,利用改性天然菱铁矿作为反应介质材料,将其应用于处理主要以As(Ⅲ)形式存在的高砷地下水具备良好的发展前景。  相似文献

The effects of water residence time and anoxic conditions on the mobilization and speciation of As in a calcite- and pyrite-bearing altered rock excavated during a road-tunnel project has been evaluated using batch and column laboratory experiments. Higher infiltration rates (i.e., shorter water residence times) enhanced the leaching of As due to the higher pH values of the effluents and more rapid transport of dissolved As through the columns. The concentration of As in the effluent also increased under anoxic conditions regardless of the water residence time. This enhanced leaching of As under anoxic conditions could be attributed to a significant pH increase and decreased Fe oxyhydroxide/oxide precipitation compared to similar experiments done under ambient conditions. Processes that controlled the evolution of pH and the temporal release mechanisms of As under anoxic conditions were identical to those previously observed under ambient conditions: the dissolution of soluble phases, pyrite oxidation, co-precipitation and/or adsorption/desorption reactions. Speciation of As in the column experiments could partly be attributed to the pH-dependent adsorption of As species onto Fe oxyhydroxide/oxide precipitates. Moreover, apparent equilibrium of the total As and As[III] concentrations was delayed under anoxic conditions in both batch and column experiments.  相似文献

采集缺氧活性污泥进行室内微生物驯化,培养耐砷反硝化菌。把耐砷反硝化菌、营养液和吸附As(V)的水铁矿在厌氧条件下培养,研究反硝化菌代谢作用下,系统中Fe、Mn、NO3-和As形态的动态变化。结果表明,缺氧活性污泥中的反硝化菌具有一定的耐砷能力。在砷含量500μg/L以内,其反硝化强度基本不受砷的影响。在吸附有砷的水铁矿体系中,反硝化菌所产生的反硝化作用可导致溶液中NO3-含量的降低、Fe含量的升高、As含量降低,且As(III)所占比例增加。这说明,体系中水铁矿的还原性溶解和As(V)的还原性解吸已经发生。As含量降低的原因是,在培养体系中水铁矿的含量高,Fe的释放量只占很小比例,表层水铁矿被还原后,在次表层形成新的水铁矿吸附位,这种新吸附位不仅可以吸附溶液中已经存在的As,而且能够再吸附由于还原性溶解和解吸所释放出的As。  相似文献

Due to the severity of arsenic contamination of soil and water resources around the world, finding new adsorbents for arsenic removal from the water is of high importance. The present study investigates the possible use and effectiveness of starch-stabilized Fe/Cu nanoparticles for adsorption of arsenic from aqueous solutions. First, Fe/Cu nanoparticles at various starch concentrations of 0, 0.02, 0.04 and 0.06 wt% were synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and zeta potential/particle size analyzer. Then 0.04 wt% stabilized Fe/Cu nanoparticles were tested for the sorption of As(III) and As(V) from synthetic arsenic-contaminated water. To have an understanding about the arsenic adsorption mechanism of nanoparticles, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was performed before and after adsorption. The results showed that starch provides nanoparticles with a neutral surface and stabilization of nanoparticles is possible with 0.04 wt% or higher concentrations of starch. For 0.04 wt% starch-stabilized Fe/Cu nanoparticles, the adsorption isotherms fit well within the Langmuir equation, with maximum sorption capacities of 90.1 mg/g for As(III) and 126.58 mg/g for As(V) at a pH of 7.0 from the aqueous arsenic solutions. Examining the XPS spectra of nanoparticles before and after adsorption showed that arsenic adsorption by this nanoparticle can be due to the formation of inner-sphere arsenic complexes on the particle surface, and the surface oxygen-containing functional groups involved in adsorption. The high sorption capacity suggests the potential for applying starch-stabilized Fe/Cu nanoparticles to the contaminated waters for removal of arsenic.  相似文献

Arsenate, As(V), sorption onto synthetic iron(II) monosulfide, disordered mackinawite (FeS), is fast. As(V) sorption decreases above the point of zero surface charge of FeS and follows the pH-dependent concentration of positively charged surface species. No redox reaction is observed between the As(V) ions and the mineral surface over the time span of the experiments. This observation shows that As(V) dominantly forms an outer-sphere complex at the surface of mackinawite. Arsenite, As(III), sorption is not strongly pH-dependent and can be expressed by a Freundlich isotherm. Sorption is fast, although slower than that of As(V). As(III) also forms an outer-sphere complex at the surface of mackinawite. In agreement with previous spectroscopic studies, complexation at low As(V) and As(III) concentration occurs preferentially at the mono-coordinated sulfide edge sites. The Kd (L g−1) values obtained from linear fits to the isotherm data are ∼9 for As(V) and ∼2 for As(III). Stronger sorption of As(V) than As(III), and thus a higher As(III) mobility, may be reflected in natural anoxic sulfidic waters when disordered mackinawite controls arsenic mobility.  相似文献

Bone char has been used as a low-cost adsorbent for the removal of As(V) from waste water. The batch experiments show that the Langmuir isotherm describes well the adsorption behavior. The adsorption process follows a pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The column experiments were conducted at pH = 4 and 10 mg/L an initial concentration of As(V). The breakthrough curves were investigated for various conditions, such as different flow rates, column bed heights, adsorption cycles, coexisting cations and anions such as Mn2+, Al3+, PO4 3?, SO4 2? and SiO3 2?. The convection–diffusion equation was used to model the experimental transport data of As(V) for these conditions. It has been found that the coexisting cations can enhance As(V) immobilization and increase retardation factor (R f), and coexisting anions significantly decrease the diffusion coefficient (D L) of As(V). The secondary adsorption phenomena were observed in the breakthrough curves of column studies of As(V) with cations, especially Mn2+. The regeneration experiments using distilled water and 0.1 mol/L NaOH solution were done to evaluate the desorption degree. The total desorbed amounts from whole column for three experiments decreased from 8.98 to 7.67 mg and the desorption degrees increased from 0.51 to 0.71 unexpectedly, which indicates that the regeneration operation is feasible. Finally, the chemical analysis of column effluents and infrared spectroscopic analysis of absorbent both revealed that the ligand exchange and electrostatic interaction are the main removal mechanisms.  相似文献

In situ arsenic removal in an alkaline clastic aquifer   总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0  
In situ removal of As from ground water used for water supply has been accomplished elsewhere in circum-neutral ground water containing high dissolved Fe(II) concentrations. The objective of this study was to evaluate in situ As ground-water treatment approaches in alkaline ground-water (pH > 8) that contains low dissolved Fe (<a few tens of μg/L). The low dissolved Fe content limits development of significant Fe-oxide and the high-pH limits As adsorption onto Fe-oxide. The chemistries of ground water in the two aquifers studied are similar except for the inorganic As species. Although total inorganic As concentrations were similar, one aquifer has dominantly aqueous As(III) and the other has mostly As(V). Dissolved O2, Fe(II), and HCl were added to water and injected into the two aquifers to form Fe-oxide and lower the pH to remove As. Cycles of injection and withdrawal involved varying Fe(II) concentrations in the injectate. The As concentrations in water withdrawn from the two aquifers were as low as 1 and 6 μg/L, with greater As removal from the aquifer containing As(V). However, Fe and Mn concentrations increased to levels greater than US drinking water standards during some of the withdrawal periods. A balance between As removal and maintenance of low Fe and Mn concentrations may be a design consideration if this approach is used for public-supply systems. The ability to lower As concentrations in situ in high-pH ground water should have broad applicability because similar high-As ground water is present in many parts of the world.  相似文献
