Abstract
The objective of this study is to investigate the possibility for water treatment, and to evaluate the efficiency of simultaneous removal of ammonium and nitrate by the surface modified zeocarbon. The surface modification was done by acid treatment using HCl. As a result of modification, strength of the modified zeocarbon was enhanced about 62% higher than that of in original one. This indicates that the modified zeocarbon was suitable for the application of water treatment. In the removal experiments of ammonium and nitrate, the removal efficiency showed about two times higher in the modified zeocarbon and the dependences of pH and temperature were found to be minimized. This indicates that the modified zeocarbon was effective for simultaneous removal of ammonium and nitrate from aqueous solution. Consequently, our results could be used as basic data to design of one-stage ammonium/nitrate simultaneous removal system.
