Filter media for removal of Arsenic from Potable Water with iron-impregnated activated carbon enhanced with titanium oxide

摘要

A filter media for the filtration of potable water; specifically, for the removal of arsenic from potable water using iron-impregnated activated carbon enhanced with titanium oxide, such as the titanium oxide mixture used in the commercial product Metsorb®. The activated carbon is subjected to a wet impregnation process using an iron salt solution of approximately 6% of iron(III) chloride FeCl₃ solution and 1.25% of NaOH solution.
