Adsorption performance of eucalyptus biochar fixed-bed column for manganese removal in actual groundwater
Main Article Content
Abstract
Removal of manganese in contaminate groundwater by filtration is the most popular system. The objective of this research was to study the efficiency of fixed-bed adsorption column using eucalyptus biochar and potassium permanganate-modified eucalyptus biochar as filter media to remove manganese from actual groundwater. The initial manganese concentration of 0.723 + 0.002 mg/L was fed continuously from the top of column at a flow rate of 5 L/d. Water samples were collected at the interval of times within 24 hours. The breakthrough curves were plotted using Thomas and Yoon-Nelson models to describe the adsorption performance. Results showed that adsorption capacity of eucalyptus biochar was 1.812 mg/g, higher than that of modified eucalyptus biochar of 0.769 mg/g. The adsorption times at 50% breakthrough of eucalyptus biochar and modified eucalyptus biochar were 1,020 minutes and 240 minutes, respectively which was consistent to Yoon-Nelson model.
