Abstract 1) Chapter (І) Introduction about water as importance, uses, common pollutants and a back ground about ammonia, iron, and manages in drinking water and its impact and their ways of removal and ferrate as an emerging technology for water treatment. 2) Chapter (II) Literature survey has been presented on the surface and ground water statues in Egypt and the used treatment in Egypt. Challenges within the conventional treatment of water have been declared in this part. Ferrate uses, efficiency, and benefits in water treatment has been discussed in a brief way. 3) Chapter (III) Includes the experimental part, materials, solutions, their preparation techniques, instruments, analysis used in this work, and the practical procedures that have been carried out in this study. 4) Chapter (IV) This chapter contains the results and discussion from the experimental work done through this study. This chapter consist of 5 parts. The first part: Includes the monitoring of Surface water quality on Rosetta branch with a highlight on organic, inorganic and microbiological pollution within the branch. Summary Summary Using of Alternative Green Coagulant in Treatment of Micro-Pollutants in Different Water Resources The second part: Includes the monitoring of Ground water quality on Delta Region with a highlight on Fe, Mn and turbidity. The third part: Includes the preparation and characterization of ferrate to be used in treatment. The fourth part: Includes treatment of ammonia from water resources. The optimum conditions were sets by application of ferrate on synthetic samples. The condition were: 30 mg/l for ferrate dose, 30 minutes for the treatment time, and pH 6-8. These optimum conditions have been tested on treatment of Fisha WTPs raw water and have achieved removal of ammonia, turbidity, and total coliform by 92.2%, 82.1%, and 99.99%, respectively, which is higher if compared by using both alum and chlorine with doses 40 and 80 mg/l. The produced slurry from ferrate was found to be 10 ml which is less than the volume of slurry produced when (chlorine/alum) = 16 ml was used. Up to 46% reduction of carcinogenic Disinfection By-Products (DBPs) was achieved by using ferrate instead of conventional chemicals. The raw water quality from Fisha WTP was enhanced from 23% “poor water quality” up to 94.5 % “excellent water quality” by using ferrate with dose of 30 mg/l and treatment time of 30 minutes at natural pH. The fifth part: Includes treatment of Iron and manganese from ground water using a filtration bed, the optimum conditions were sets by application of ferrate in iron and manganese synthetic sample. The optimum conditions were: 0.08% ferrate concentration ratio, filtration time = 0.4 l/hr, and with no pH buffering. This optimum conditions have been tested on treatment of Ashmoun GWPs. Ashmoun water quality was enhanced in terms of concentration of iron and manganese together with turbidity removal. The WQI was enhanced from 35.65 % with poor Summary Summary Using of Alternative Green Coagulant in Treatment of Micro-Pollutants in Different Water Resources quality to 85.21% with good quality by using of ferrate concentration ratio (0.08%), filtration time = 0.4 l/hr, and with no pH buffering. 5) Chapter (V) Includes the conclusion that has been extracted from this work: Ferrate has proven itself as a green coagulant alternative for the conventional treatment. Ferrate has accomplished the required treatment of surface water of Fisha WTP without producing carcinogenic DBPs above the Guideline values. Using of ferrate in surface water treatment enhanced the WQI of Fisha WTP raw water from 23% “poor water quality” up to 94.5 % “excellent water quality”. Ferrate successes in enhancing the Ground water quality of Ashmoun GWPs from 35.65 % with “poor water quality” to 85.21% with “good water quality |
