Abstract:

The effect of bed material heights on treatment performance of pollutants from micro-polluted raw Water was studied in zeolite - Ceramics biological aerated filter(ZCBAF) technology. The test results showed the removal rate of CODMn, NH4+-N and UV254 will improve with the increase of media height, most of CODMn and UV254 were removed within the first 440mm , when the media height over 440mm, the effect of increase height is inconspicuous removal, and ammonia-nitrogen removal has evident improvement during 220-440mm. At the media height of 20mm, 40mm and 60mm in ZCBAF respectively, the removal efficiency of CODMn is 18.05%,31.6% and 38.62% respectively, NH4+-N removal efficiency is 29.78%,81.28% and 93.02% respectively , and UV254 removal efficiency is 7.81%,10.11% and 11.26% respectively under the air/water ratio of 1:1 and the hydraulic loading of 1.2m3/(m2.h). Removal rate of CODMn was decreased with the increase of hydraulic loading, and removal effect of NH4+-N and UV254 had not big influence.
