An Experimental Study of the Silver-Loading Diatomite on the Water Disinfection

Abstract:

The silver-loading diatomite prepared by the vacuum heating decomposition method was applied to the water disinfection. The inactivation effects of the silver-loading diatomite on the Escherichia coli (E. coli) in water were investigated. The effects of temperature and pH value on the bactericidal activity of the silver-loading diatomite against E. coli were investigated. The concentration of Ag+ in water samples was tested for safety. The results show that the silver-loading diatomite with the silver content of 1.46% can kill E. coli in experiment water in 30 minutes. The higher the temperature and the greater the PH value of the water samples, the stronger the antibacterial properties of the silver-loading diatomite. The concentration of Ag+ is less than 50ug/L in the disinfected and treated water samples. The silver-loading diatomite is a safe, effective antibacterial material.
