Study on Combined Process of Adsorption-Membrane Separation for Military Toxicant VX Polluted Municipal Water Treatment

Abstract:

It developed test devices and carried out test adopting combined process of adsorption-membrane separation targeted at municipal water polluted by military toxicant VX. Investigation on purification effects of sand filtration, microfiltration, ultrafiltration, activated carbon adsorption and reverse osmosis was implemented in sections. It also studied on working principles of each section. Furthermore, comparative study has been made for adsorption performance of coaly granular activated carbon and that of shell activated carbon. The results show that the device can remove effectively simulation agent in water and the effluent quality complies with requirements of relevant standards.
