Abstract:
Effectiveness of hydrous manganese dioxide (δMnO2) adsorbing humic acid under different conditions and its subsequent effects on trihalomethane (THMs) formation have been studied. 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.
