The study presents the removal of trace cadmium (II) in water with batch experiments by two kinds of manganese coagulants, HMO prepared from KMnO 4 and Na 2 S 2 O 3 , and HFMO prepared from KMnO 4 and FeSO 4 . Various parameters such as turbidity, pH, initial concentration of Cd(II) and coagulation time were investigated. The results showed that the cadmium can be better removed using HMO than by HFMO. With pH =6.72 and the Cd(II) initial concentration, 1mg/L, the dosage of HMO is 20mg/L, as the removal rate of cadmium is 85.04%. However, with pH = 8.03 and the Cd(II) initial concentration, 1mg/L, the dosage of HFMO is 20mg/L, as the removal rate of cadmium is 53.23%. The effectiveness of these two kinds of manganese coagulants for removal of cadmium and turbidity in natural water from Canal Jingmi in Beijing performed better when HMO is used than HFMO used. The paper indicated that HMO was an easily available and effective coagulant for the disposal of trace cadmium in water.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
