摘要：Rising demands concerning water treatment and conservation make it necessary to search for more effective as well as cheap and ecologically safe solutions.During the filtration process quartz sand is replaced by filter materials which also have a strong effect on account of reactions taking place on a bed’s surface.Today’s technologies for groundwater and seepage water treatment in rapid filters make use of oxidation beds.They are able to effectively remove manganese (II) and iron (II) compounds based on heterogeneous oxidation catalysis.The main catalyst of the manganese removal process in terms of its catalytic oxidation in filtration beds is manganese dioxide.This compound is used as an oxidizing agent in many processes.The research conducted as part of this paper was aimed at creating a product with the qualities similar to a popular Greensand bed protected by patent.The authors tested washed quartz sand varying in granulation which was subject to activation in 10% KMnO4 solution.Grains of quartz sand after covering them with a permanent coat of manganese oxide developed the superficial oxidation layer.While performing the tests, a temperature of the process served as a variable.The beds produced as a result of the experiment enable the removal of iron and manganese from water without prior alkylation.Furthermore, they are an effective method of purifying water of organic pollutants and ammoniacal nitrogen.They function as oxidizing and filtering masses.
