2 The NWF Water Purification Process: list of contents 1. NWF biological purification of groundwater Iron and manganese in groundwater Removal of iron and manganese from groundwater General Biological methods The NWF process References: municipality of Siilinjärvi and others 2. New development: NWFlo Flotation Process 2
3 IRON AND MANGANESE IN GROUNDWATER 3
4 Iron, Fe OCCURRENCE OF IRON IN GROUNDWATER Main form: bivalent soluble ferrous iron, Fe2+, normally as bicarbonate, Fe(HCO3)2 Often also some insoluble trivalent ferric iron, Fe3+, is present as ferric hydroxide, Fe(OH)3 Forms complex compounds with organic and inorganic substances Factors affecting solubility: ph, redox potential, temperature, concentrations of different substances, biological functions 4
5 OCCURRENCE OF MANGANESE IN GROUNDWATER Manganese, Mn Is present in natural waters in the bi-, tri- and quadrivalent states Main form: bivalent soluble Mn2+ The higher-valent manganese compounds are precipitated as oxides The heptavalent manganese forms soluble purple permanganate, MnO4- Forms complexes with humus in the same way as iron Factors influencing solubility: ph, redox potential, (temperature, concentrations of various substances, biological functions) 5
6 REMOVAL OF IRON AND MANGANESE FROM GROUNDWATER 6
7 Removal of iron and manganese from groundwater 1: Principle General principle: Soluble bivalent iron and manganese compounds are oxidised to insoluble hydroxides (Fe(OH)3) and oxides (MnO2) that can be separated by filtering. Oxidisation of iron is easy already around neutral ph. Oxidisation of manganese is more difficult: a higher ph and redox potential is required. The oxidation process is considerably slower and more difficult than with iron. In humus-containing water it can be very difficult. 7
8 Removal of iron and manganese from groundwater 2: Methods Aeration + filtration Oxidation with a stronger oxidant than air (oxygen, ozone, chlorine, permanganate) + fitration Alkalizing filtration Ion exchange Precipitation with iron or aluminium salts + filtration Biological methods Note: all methods involve both chemical and biological activity. 8
9 Biological removal of iron and manganese from groundwater 1: Mechanisms Two mechanisms: The microbe oxidises iron/manganese biologically thus utilizing the reaction for its living functions and energy economy => biological purification process The microbe precipitates chemically iron/manganese in its cells, mainly on the surface or in its filament, but the precipitated metal is not utilized by the microbe => biologically catalyzed precipitation reaction of iron/manganese 9
10 Biological removal of iron and manganese from groundwater 2: Bacteria Bacteria precipitating iron Biological precipitation: Gallionella ferruginea Mechanical precipitation: families Sphaerotilus and Siderocapsa Bacteria precipitating manganese Manganese only: Pseudomonas manganoxidans Both iron and manganese: several species 10
11 Bacteria precipitating iron and manganese 11
12 Biological removal of iron and manganese from groundwater 3: Conditions Iron bacteria function best in the so-called transition state between oxic and anoxic conditions. The necessary rise in redox potential is easily obtained with a small addition of oxygen. Removal of manganese is more difficult than removal of iron; a higher ph and redox potential is required. Furthermore, the manganese bacteria grow more slowly than iron bacteria, and therefore starting manganese removal can take several weeks. 12
13 Biological removal of iron and manganese from groundwater 4: Treatment result & filtration The treatment result obtained is better than with chemicals only The iron and manganese sludges produced in the biological process are denser and heavier than chemical sludges. Consequently Removal of water from the sludge is easier Filtration is more effective Washing of the filter can be carried out less frequently 13
14 BIOLOGICAL METHODS Aeration and slow sand filtration: 1900th century Dry filtration (biofilter): 1950 s Aeration + biofiltration + limestone filtration: 1990 s NWF method: 21st century 14
15 Example of techniques: iron and manganese removal at the Rumeland water works in Hamburg, Germany 15
16 THE NWF PROCESS 16
17 The NWF process and its main phases The NWF process is a multi-stage oxidationstripping-biofiltering process with sand filtering as the final treatment stage. Oxidation and removal of acid gases takes place in a single column. Several process steps take place simultaneously or one after another. The metal sludges formed are separated in a sand filter. 17
18 Description of the aeration process 1. Absorption of the oxidizing gas in the water 2. Sprinkling 3. Fogging 4. Hovering 5. Gas removal under vacuum 6. Chemical reactions on the surfaces of the filler material 7. Biochemical reactions on the surfaces of the filler material 8. Removal of acid gases improves biochemical activity 9. Lengthening of the reaction time 10.Flowing of the water with the hydroxide/oxide sludges and other flocculated substances to the filtering stage 18
19 NWF-PROSESSI 19
20 NWF-LAITOS 20
21 Main effects of NWF treatment Removes effectively iron and manganese, more effectively than chemical methods Reduces the acidity of the water: stripping away carbon dioxide raises the ph of the water by 1-2 ph points and reduces the aggressivity of the water accordingly Removes other dissolved gases, such as methane, hydrogen sulphide (smell!) and radon (radioactivity) Removes organic material and ammonium nitrogen Improves the clarity and freshness of the water 21
22 Advantages of the NWF process in operation Chemicals are not added Saves rinsing water => Low operational costs Small energy consumption Simple to use No clogging problems Simple maintenance Easy to automatize/need of automatizing is little Modular built, easy to install, easy to enlarge EXCELLENT WATER WITH EVEN QUALITY! 22
23 What can happen and often does happen - in a plant using chemicals A large amount of sodium hydroxide was slipped into the drinking water line, a couple was hospitalized. Human error: Forced feed (of the chemical) was forgotten on. I have done these feeds for 15 years, 40 feeds per year, and this was the first time this happened.
