Arsenic Removal from Natural Water Using Low Cost Granulated Adsorbents: A Review
Elevated arsenic concentrations have been detected in drinking water sources worldwide and it threatens to over 200 million people in both developing and developed countries. Adsorption is a conventional process for arsenic removal from contaminated water. Several classes of adsorbing materials have been tested so far. However, far less attention was paid towards granular‐based adsorption and granulation processes. The present work is the first attempt to consider both the granular adsorbent and the granulation process. A particular emphasis was given to cost‐efficient adsorbent for small scale arsenic removal. Some of the features of granular adsorbents are summarized in tables and graphs; address necessary outlines for readers to easily overview the adsorbents' characteristics and design sustainable adsorption system. Earlier, cost of arsenic removals from granular adsorbents were not widely affirmed, but in this review few of them are incorporated for comparisons in future studies. Thus, one gram of arsenic removal from water using novel and iron oxide‐coated sand adsorbents is approximately ranged US$2.3–5.1 and US$3.3–4.2, respectively. Moreover, methods employed for regeneration of exhausted granular adsorbents are discussed. Field scale arsenic remediation measures and the performance evaluations are additionally reported to identify the feasibility of these approaches for scaling up, awareness raising and promotion.
