Development of Effective and Low-Cost Water Treatment Method for First Nations and Rural Communities in British Columbia, Canada
In this study, an effective and low-cost water treatment system is developed. A critical water contamination problem, experienced by the rural, remote, First Nation communities was identified, which is Manganese. Then a treatment system was developed to effectively remove Manganese from the source water. Greensand plus was used as a filtration media, and the prototype was designed to best suit the need of the community residents to remove Manganese in raw water. The laboratory scale experiments were designed using Design Expert software; results were analyzed using RSM method, and the test apparatus was able to reach a removal efficiency 96.50% which can effectively treat source water levels found in the raw water sample. Therefore, a fit-for-purpose solution is developed to remove Manganese from raw water, which is cost-effective, easy to use, and maintain.
