Treatment of Agricultural Wastewater Using Porous Ceramics Composite of Hydroxyapatite and Silica

Abstract:

Porous ceramics filter was prepared by sintering of hydroxyapatite (HA) and silica composite nanopowder. Silica nanopowder of 50 wt% are incorporated into HA nanopowder. The mixing powders are uniaxially compact and then sintering at 900°C-1050°C in air. The characterization of the porous was carried out by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Filtration studies using porous ceramic were performed for agricultural wastewater. The studies of the water filtration and flow through these porous showed that the sintered ceramic filter at all temperatures reduced the TDS, TS, conductivity, and arsenic (As) content. The water permeated through porous ceramic composites could be compared to drinking water quality.
