Arsenic Concentration In Potable Water. Due to the carcinogenic effects of arsenic we have followed more stringent guidelines in this study. The permissible level of arsenic in drinking water for Pakistan may be fixed at 005mglitre 50 ppb which is safe enough. Heating or boiling your water will not remove arsenic. The highest arsenic removal was obtained in the monopolar series MP-S electrode connection mode for both electrodes as pH 65 for Fe and pH 7 for Al electrodes to achieve a residual arsenic concentration of 10 μgL or less for potable water in the EC process.
Arsenic contamination of ground water is found in many countries throughout the world including the US. An increase in pH may increase the concentration of dissolved arsenic in water Slooff et al 1990. Symptoms have a latency period of 520 years making early detection difficult. While as per Health Canada guidelines the MAC for arsenic is 10µgL. At pH 92 arsenite exists as a 50-50 mixture of H 3 AsO 3 and H 2 AsO 3 1. ArsenicIII Lemmo et al 1983.
Additionally chlorine bleach disinfection will not remove arsenic.
They found an arsenic concentration of 6525μgg. An increase in pH may increase the concentration of dissolved arsenic in water Slooff et al 1990. Stringent attitude towards the presence of arsenic in water. Technologies such as adsorptive media and ion exchange are best suited to sites with relatively low. This is a extremely small amount in contrast fluoride has a recommended level of 15mg per litre and chlorine a recommended level of 5mg per litre. At pH 92 arsenite exists as a 50-50 mixture of H 3 AsO 3 and H 2 AsO 3 1.
