Description:
This design manual is an in-depth presentation of the steps required to design and operate a water treatment plant for removal of excess arsenic from drinking water using the anion exchange process. The treatment process is very reliable, simple and cost-effective. This design manual presents the information necessary to design and operate treatment anion exchange treatment system using a three bed system; two beds in parallel followed by a third bed in series. The manual discusses the capital and operating costs including the many variables which can raise or lower costs for identical treatment systems.
