Sorption material - granulated SKOV, mm of grain sizes Column bed: L = 350 mm, S= 2950 mm 2, BV = 1 liter. Independent tests performed by the "ECOSOFT" JSC, Kiev, Ukraine Flow rate, bed volumes per hour (BV/h) (BV) Bed Volumes of purified water Fe-content in a filtrate, mg/l рН The sensitivity of the purification process to flow rate was checked. During the continuous passing initial water trough the sorption bed, the flow rate was kept 10 l/h, then, elevated two times, up to 20 l/h, and then, reduced back.

Перейти на первую страницу ARSENICS PROBLEM IN THE WORLD WHO's activities on arsenic In 1963 the standard was estimated to be 0.05 mg/L. In 1984, this was maintained as WHO's "Guideline Value"; and many countries have kept this as the national standard or as an interim target. According to the last edition of the WHO Guidelines for Drinking-Water Quality (1993): Inorganic arsenic is a documented human carcinogen mg/L was established as a provisional guideline value for arsenic. Based on health criteria, the guideline value for arsenic in drinking-water would be less than 0.01mg/L. Natural arsenic pollution is a global phenomenon for 70 countries on all continents, except Antarctica,. In recent decades about 140 million people worldwide have been exposed to drinking water containing more than 10 μg/L of arsenic.”
