Arsenic Removal from Water
Understanding the Arsenic Contaminant
Arsenic is a naturally occurring element found in soil, bedrock, and water. It often enters water supplies through natural mineral deposits or agricultural and industrial runoff. Long-term exposure to arsenic can cause severe health issues, including skin lesions, cancer, and cardiovascular problems, making its removal from drinking water essential for safety.
Solutions for Arsenic Removal
- Reverse Osmosis: A highly effective method that uses a semi-permeable membrane to remove arsenic and other contaminants from water.
- Ion Exchange: Exchanges arsenic ions with safer ions, such as chloride or sulfate, effectively reducing arsenic levels.
- Activated Alumina: Adsorbs arsenic, especially in its arsenate form, making it an excellent choice for targeted removal.
- Oxidation Filtration: Converts arsenic into a filterable form using oxidation agents, followed by filtration.
Applications
Arsenic removal is vital for residential, commercial, and industrial water systems to ensure safe drinking water and compliance with health standards.
