Drinking water of groundwater with iron and manganese
The basic format for the treatment of groundwater corresponds to that for the surface water.
The iron and manganese often found in the groundwater can be directly oxidized in the filtration tank with a suitable pH value and atmospheric oxygen with the help of AQUALOOP technology. The oxidation of iron lapses in sufficient quantities in the neutral and alkaline range. The biological manganese removal also works in neutral range, but requires a period of 2 – 3 months. The microorganisms that are usually present in ground water settle, after a certain time, on the filter material and other components.
