Combination of chlorine and magnetic ion exchange resin for drinking water treatment of algae

摘要

The effectiveness of a magnetic ion exchange resin(MIEX) for the treatment of Hongze Lake water in China was evaluated.The kinetics of natural organic matter(NOM) removal at various MIEX doses and contact time,multiple-loading experiments,impacts of MIEX prior to coagulation on coagulant demands and the effectiveness of combination of MIEX,pre-chlorination and coagulation were investigated.Kinetic experimental results show that more than 80%UV254 and 67%dissolved organic carbon(DOC) from raw water can be removed by the use of MIEX alone.94%sulfate,69%nitrate and 98%bromide removals are obtained after the first use of MIEX in multiple-loading experiments.It is suggested that MIEX can be loaded up to 1 250 bed volume(BV,volume ratio of tested water to resin) or more without saturation when regarding organics removal as a target. MIEX can remove organics to a greater extend than coagulation and lower the coagulant demand when combining with coagulation. Chlorination experimental results show that MIEX can remove 57%chlorine demand and 77%trihalomethane formation potential(THMFP) for raw water.Pre-chlorination followed by MIEX and coagulation can give additional organic and THMFP removals.The results suggest that MIEX provides a new method to solve the problem algae reproduction.
