Abstract:
Leakage of manganese usually occurs in bio-filters for simultaneous removal of iron and manganese from groundwater is conducted in this paper.The paper argues that reduction of MnO
x by Fe
2+ causes the phenomenon of leakage of manganese.The reaction is affected mainly by mass of MnO
x,concentration of Fe
2+ and pH value,and which is promoted while pH value below 5.0 and inhibited while pH value is over 7.5.Released manganese concentrations showed quadratic curve relationship with mass of MnO
x and also Fe
2+ concentration.
