Iron removal by intermittent sand flitration / Azlan Mohamad Saad
Iron is present in many ground water. According to the standards in various countries the amount of iron should not exceed 0.3mg/L in water for public supply. Too much iron in the water tends to stain laundry and also gives bad taste to the water etc. Iron is generally removed from water by precipit...
