Groundwater extracted from wells to supply the city of Torreon in Mexico contains high levels of arsenic. In some wells, the concentration exceeds the Mexican concentration limit of 25 ppb. The objective of this capstone project was to evaluate the technical and economic feasibility of using chemical coprecipitation with ferric chloride to remove arsenic from groundwater. A series of laboratory bench-scale treatability studies were conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the coprecipitation process, and a system was designed to treat the municipality's average flow rate of 27 liters per second while complying with the current World Health Organization standard of 10 ppb. Additionally, an evaluation of the life cycle costs and pollution prevention benefits for such a system in Torreon was assessed. In the current study, chemical coprecipitation proved to be a technology suitable for treating arsenic in groundwater because of its low costs of implementation, operation, and maintenance.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Walter Schroeder Library Master's Theses AC805 .G3758 2011 Available Add Copy to MyList Format: HTMLPlain textDelimited Subject:   Email to:
