Hello everyone, this is a new perspective on water treatment. I am an engineer engaged in the design and installation of water treatment equipment. Today, I am here to answer some questions about water treatment equipment for you, hoping to be helpful.
As is well known, trace elements such as iron and manganese are indispensable in the human body. However, drinking water with an iron manganese index exceeding the standard not only has a bad taste, but also poses certain hazards to the human body, such as damage to the digestive system and heart.
In addition, if water with excessive iron and manganese is used for daily life and production, it can cause damage, rust, blockage of water pipes, deterioration of beverages, discoloration of clothing, and other issues with membrane water treatment equipment. So, it is necessary to use manganese and iron removal equipment, and how to choose the equipment is also important.
Iron and manganese removal equipment is a common treatment equipment for groundwater. Its working principle is to use oxidation methods to complete ion exchange, oxidizing low-priced iron and manganese ions in water into high priced iron and manganese ions, and then removing them through adsorption, filtration, and precipitation. Especially for heavily polluted groundwater, this equipment can not only effectively remove iron and manganese, but also use ammonia in water as a nutrient source for metabolism. With the help of iron and other bacteria, it can achieve the effect of removing ammonia nitrogen.
At present, the technology of this equipment has developed very maturely, with reliable operation and low cost, and a lifespan of several decades. It only requires some filter material loss costs every year.
The filter material for removing iron and manganese is generally made of refined quartz sand or manganese sand, which is a good catalyst. It is usually made of natural minerals and is very sensitive to iron and manganese. As long as iron and manganese ions exist, the filter material will be firmly absorbed. Therefore, the filter material will become saturated. When the filter material is saturated and cannot complete the work better, it needs to be regenerated by chemical methods, soaked in sodium hydroxide solution to restore its original state, and continue to be used.
In addition, equipment for iron and manganese removal generally consists of filter tanks, aeration devices, intermediate pressure pumps, backwash pumps, control systems, water supply pumps, and pipeline systems. Because the equipment is not very small in size, it is important to place it on a horizontal concrete foundation during installation to stabilize the foundation and prevent settlement.
Iron manganese equipment is currently widely used for pre-treatment work in industries such as groundwater, geothermal engineering, swimming pool water, pharmaceutical water treatment, food, electronics and electrical engineering, and mineral water purification.
