Humicacid removal increases with higher pH and residual TOC decreases from 3.63 mg/L to 1.68 mg/L with pH increasing from 5.5 to 8.5 at 3.0 mg/L δMnO2; δMnO2 exhibits good potential of removing humic acid and the adsorbing potential as high as 1 mg TOC/mg δMnO2 is achieved; the fractional reduction of humic acid with higher molecular weight is about 30% higher than that with lower molecular weight. δMnO2 adsorption obviously reduces subsequent THMs formation; more significant THMs formation reduction is observed for humic acid with higher molecular weight. δMnO2 adsorption is an important factor that contributes to humic acid removal and THMs formation reduction in permanganate pre-oxidation process.展开更多

Effects of such factors as permanganate oxidation, pH, humic acid and Ca^2+ on As removal and possible mechanisms involved in have been investigated. Permanganate oxidation increases As removal to a certain extent; the higher pH results in the formation of more easily adsorbed As species, contributing to higher As removal; hmnic acid occupies adsorbing sites and decreases ζ potential of ζMnO2, therefore inhibiting As removal; Ca^2+ facilitates As adsorption on ζMnO2, mainly through increasing ζ potential and decreasing repulsive forces between As and surface sites.ζMnO2 exhibits oxidative and adsorptive potential for As(Ⅲ), and may be employed as adsorbents or filter coating for As removal in water treatment process.展开更多
