Evaluation of turbidity and dissolved organic matter removal through double filtration technology with activated carbon

The decrease of physicochemical and microbiological quality of surface supply source for human consumption, requires specific complementary treatments to ensure the supply of safe drinking water. This study evaluated the double filtration technology with two types of Granular Activated Carbon (GAC:...

This study evaluated the double filtration technology with two types of Granular Activated Carbon (GAC: vegetable-coconut and mineral-bituminous shells, respectively), to determine its influence in reducing turbidity and mainly dissolved organic matter (UV254). We used filtered water from a Conventional Water Treatment Plant (WTP) and the second filtration stage were made using continuous flow gravity columns at laboratory-scale with different percentages of GAC:sand (100:0, 80:20, 50:50, 30:70, and 0:100). While the sand filter presented the best turbidity removal efficiency, the CAG filters were more efficient at UV254 removal, being most efficient the filters with greater percentage of GAC. The results demonstrate that the use of double filtration technology with GAC can be an efficient alternative for the removal of organic matter to obtain safe drinking water.La reducción de la calidad fisicoquímica y microbiológica de las fuentes superficiales de suministro para consumo humano, requiere utilizar tratamientos complementarios para garantizar el suministro de agua segura. En este estudio se evaluó la doble filtración con carbón activado granular (CAG: vegetal- cáscara de coco y mineral-bituminoso), para evaluar la reducción de turbiedad y materia orgánica disuelta (UV254). Se empleó agua filtrada de una Planta de Tratamiento Convencional–PTAP; la segunda filtración se realizó en columnas de laboratorio de flujo continuo a gravedad, con porcentajes CAG:arena 100:0, 80:20, 50:50, 30:70, 0:100. Mientras el filtro de arena fue más eficiente en remoción de turbiedad, las configuraciones con CAG lo fueron en la remoción de UV254, siendo más eficientes los filtros con mayor porcentaje de CAG. Los resultados demuestran que la doble filtración empleando CAG, puede ser una alternativa eficiente para la remoción de materia orgánica y la producción de un agua potable segura.Universidad Nacional de Colombia - Sede Medellín - Facultad de Minas2019-07-03T06:57:20Z2019-07-03T06:57:20Z2018-04-01Artículo de revistainfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85Texthttp://purl.org/redcol/resource_type/ARTapplication/pdfapplication/pdfISSN: 2346-2183https://repositorio.unal.edu.co/handle/unal/68499http://bdigital.unal.edu.co/69532/spahttps://revistas.unal.edu.co/index.php/dyna/article/view/65488Universidad Nacional de Colombia Revistas electrónicas UN DynaDynaTorres-Lozada, Patricia and Amezquita-Marroquín, Claudia Patricia and Agudelo-Martínez, Karen Daniela and Ortiz-Benítez, Natalia and Martínez-Ducuara, David Santiago (2018) Evaluation of turbidity and dissolved organic matter removal through double filtration technology with activated carbon.
