Thesis Title : Removal of Arsenic from Water Environment by New Adsorbent. (Removal of Iron,

bacteria, virus, selenium also studied)

A new low-cost adsorbent named as CalSiCo, having high arsenic uptake capacity, was developed in the

Environmental Engineering Laboratory at IIT Kharagpur, India. To evaluate its capacity to adsorb arsenic under

different conditions was done using synthetic As(III) and As(V) solutions as well as real sample. The experiments

reported in this thesis were conducted in four phases: (i) batch studies, (ii) column studies, (iii) desorption and

regeneration studies, and (iv) instrumental studies. Apart from kinetic and isotherm studies, effect of different

parameter like, pH, adsorbent dose, size, presence of chloride, sulphate, nitrate, calcium, magnesium and iron

were studied. Effect of anionic ligands such as EDTA, fluoride and phosphate on the removal of As(III) and As(V)

was also studied. Desorption and regeneration studies were conducted to investigate the possibility of reuse of

spent adsorbent. Instrumental studies like infrared spectroscopy (IR), energy dispersion analysis by X-rays

(EDAX), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies for raw, arsenic adsorbed and desorbed materials were

carried out to confirm the presence of arsenic on the adsorbent surface and to find out the possible mechanism of

adsorption. CalSiCo was evaluated for its efficiency in removing arsenic in the actual field situation. It clearly

demonstrates that CalSiCo can be used as a filter media for removing arsenic from ground water in arsenic-

affected areas of West Bengal, India and Bangladesh. A 20-liter capacity home water purifier for arsenic was


28

developed for community as well as individual family, which should be subjected to a field trial to assess the long-

term performance of the medium.
