Effect of Particle Size Distribution to Remove Contaminants in Groundwater at Dengkil, Selangor

Abstract:

Particle size distribution (PSD) below ground may influence the groundwater flow rate. Due to that, this study focuses on laboratory scale using local alluvial soil to remove contaminants from river water using different of soil PSD samples. In horizontal permeability modelling shows permeability was influenced by the coefficient of uniformity (Cu) of sand. However, the permeability changes was differ between well and poorly graded sand. Well graded sands Cu between 4 to 5 the permeability changes are only between 7.8 – 7.9 x10^-4 m/s. Whereas poorly graded sands Cu are between 2.5 to 4 the permeability change between 6.9 – 9.0 x 10^-4 m/s. Whereas poorly graded sand was shows as consistent media than well graded to remove contaminants and the permeability rate is higher than well graded sand. Poorly graded (Sand B and C) removes turbidity and iron up to 50%. Because of that poorly graded soil is preferable for RBF application.
