Effects of sulfate, phosphate, silicate and humic acid (HA) on the removal of As(III) in the KMnO4–Fe(II) process were investigated in the pH range of 4–9 with permanganate and ferrous sulfate applied at selected dosage. Sulfate decreased the removal of arsenic by 6.5–36.0% at pH 6–9 and the decrease in adsorption did not increase with increasing concentration of sulfate from 50 to 100 mg/L. In the presence of 1 mg/L phosphate, arsenic removal decreased gradually as pH increased from 4 to 6, and a sharp drop occurred at pH 7–9. The presence of 10 mg/L silicate had negligible effect on arsenic removal at pH 4–5 whereas decreased the arsenic removal at pH 6–9 and the decrease was more significant at higher pH. The presence of HA dramatically decreased the arsenic removal over the pH range of 6–9 and HA of higher concentration resulted in greater drop in arsenic removal. The effects of the competing anions on arsenic removal in the KMnO4–Fe(II) process were highly dependent on pH and the degree of these four anions influencing As(III) removal decreased in the following order, phosphate > humic acid > silicate > sulfate. Sulfate differed from the other three anions because sulfate decreased the removal of arsenic mainly by competitive adsorption while phosphate, silicate and HA decreased the removal of As(III) by competitive adsorption and sequestering the formation of ferric hydroxide derived from Fe(II).
