ABSTRACT
There is an effective treatment process, inexpensive materials, and very advanced technology that can be applied because water usually considered as drinking water must undergo several treatment steps before use to comply with local drinking water standards. To eliminate iron and manganese from groundwater, a variety of techniques should be employed, such as chemical oxidation, aeration, sedimentation, and filtering with a pressured sand filter. The goal of the study was to explore different methods for extracting trace metals of iron and manganese from water. This involved using oxidizing agents like DMI65 and Aldex CR 26, followed by filtering the results with multimedia filters. Additionally, biological oxidation techniques and ceramic membrane processes were utilized after water chlorination. When water treatment involved the use of DMI65 and Aldex CR 26, followed by filtration and ceramic membrane processes, along with water chlorination at 1.0 mg/l and biological methods, the results demonstrated the high effectiveness of the techniques employed in this study compared to the traditional method. The traditional method achieved 73.2% and 64.5% removal rates for Fe and Mn, respectively. The study's findings showed that, at pH 7.99 and with a 5-minute contact duration, the removal rates for iron and manganese were 98.8%, 99.2%, 94.6%, and 97.8%, respectively.
