Natural zeolites in the water treatment process
Natural zeolites in the water treatment process

ABSTRACT
In many cases, it is necessary to treat water intended for human consumption in order to meet the requirements set out in Regulation No. 354/2006 of the Government of the Slovak Republic, which defines the requirements for water intended for human consumption and monitors the quality of drinking water. When seeking suitable water treatment technologies, the focus is on developing new, more efficient and cost-effective technologies and materials. The aim of this study was to compare the removal of dissolved iron and manganese from water using the natural zeolite – clinoptilolite – mined in Slovakia with the imported filtration material – Birm. The results obtained from the experiments carried out at the Holíč Water Treatment Plant indicate that Klinopur-Mn can be used for the removal of iron and manganese in the water treatment process (contact manganese removal). This material is comparable to the imported Birm.
