Depth filtration using novel fiber-ball filter media for the treatment of high-turbidity surface water
چکیده انگلیسی

Performance of the novel fiber-ball filter was investigated for the treatment of high-turbidity surface water. Impact of different operating parameters, such as coagulant type, coagulant dose and filtration velocity on the effluent turbidity, dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and head loss, as well as the particle removal characteristics were studied. The clean-bed filtration results showed that the fiber-ball filters had a great potential for the removal of turbidity matters. Addition of polymeric aluminum ferric chloride (PAFC) enhanced the removal of effluent turbidity and DOC, while the head loss was also increased. The effluent turbidity could be <0.5 NTU and the removal efficiency of DOC was ∼16% when the PAFC was dosed at 12 mg/L. The effluent turbidity and DOC increased slightly with increasing filtration velocities (30–50 m/h) due to the greater drag forces resulted from higher filtration velocities. However, the head loss was also increased. The particle removal characteristics indicated that large particles were primarily removed in the top 30 cm of the filter bed and the deep depth in the bottom 20 cm played an important role in preventing the occurrence of turbidity breakthrough. It was also found that particles in the size larger than 2 μm could be well removed by the fiber-ball filters, implying the potential application for the removal of protozoa like Cryptosporidium (3–15 μm) to meet the desired requirement for drinking water treatment during depth filtration.


► Novel fiber-ball filters were developed for high-turbidity surface water treatment.
► Addition of coagulants could enhance the removal of turbidity and organic matters.
► Increasing filtration velocity had little effect on the filter performance.
► Particles larger than 2 μm could be preferably removed by fiber-ball filters.
► Fiber-ball filter filtration can potentially remove the concerned pathogens.
