26 multi-regional water treatment plants (WTPs) were investigated, to determine the characteristics of manganese (Mn) concentration and removal in Korea. Mn concentrations of raw water in most WTPs were higher than the drinking water standard (i.e., 0.05 mg/L); thus, proper removal of Mn at the WTPs is needed. Mn concentration was generally higher in lakes than rivers due to seasonal lake turnovers. The Mn concentrations of treated water at 26 WTPs in 2012 were less than 0.05 mg/L, due to strict law enforcement and water treatment processes optimization. However, before 2010, those concentrations were more than 0.05 mg/L, which could have led to an accumulation of Mn oxides in the distribution system. This could be one of the main reasons for black water occurrence. Therefore, regular monitoring of Mn concentration in the distribution system, flushing, and proper Mn removal at WTPs are needed, to supply clean and palatable tap water.

This study is focused on manganese (Mn(II)) removal by ozonation in surface water. Instant ozone demand for the water was 0.5 mg/L in the study. When 0.5 mg/L of Mn(II) is existed in water, the optimum ozone concentration was 1.25 mg/L with reaction time 10 minutes to meet the drinking water regulation. The ozone concentration to meet the drinking water regulation was much higher than the stoichiometric concentration. The reaction of soluble manganese removal was so fast that the reaction time does not affect the removal dramatically. When Mn(II) is existed with Fe, the removal of Mn(II) was not affected by Fe ion. However As(V) is existed as co-ion the removal of Mn(II) was decreased by 10%. Adding ozone to surface water has limited effect to remove dissolved organic matter. When ozone is used as oxidant to remove Mn(II) in the water, the existing co-ion should be evaluated to determine optimum concentration.

충북의 북부지역에서 한약재 부산물로서 황기 줄기가 대량 생산되고 있으나, 이러한 부산물들은 특별한 수요처가 없이 밭에 폐기물로 버려지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이 폐기물을 재활용하고자, 황기 줄기를 사용하여 바이오차를 제조하였다. 이 바이오차를 사용하여 물속에 용해된 카드뮴과 망간 이온의 제거특성을 고찰하였다. 50과 100 mg/L 카드뮴 이온을 처리하기 위하여 흡착 평형 실험이 이루어졌을 때, 카드뮴의 제거효율은 각각 100과 95%를 나타내었다. 또한, 50과 100 mg/L 망간 이온을 제거하기 위하여 5 h의 반응이 이루어졌을 때, 각각 36.1과 37.9 mg/g 최대 흡착량을 얻을 수 있었다. 위의 실험 결과, 카드뮴과 망간 이온의 제거공정에서 황기 줄기 바이오차는 활성탄보다 4배 이상의 흡착량을 나타내었다. 그리고 황기 줄기 바이오차와 활성탄 표면의 화학 구조를 관찰하기 위하여 X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS)를 분석한 결과, 황기 줄기 바이오차는 활성탄과 비교하여 산소 함량과 O/C의 비율이 각각 2.1과 2.4배 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 망간 이온의 제거능력을 향상시키기 위하여 온도 변화에 의한 운전이 이루어졌으며, 45 ℃로 4 h에서 흡착 평형에 도달하였으며 50과 100 mg/L 망간 이온은 각각 92, 53%의 제거효율을 나타내었다. 결과적으로 이러한 실험 결과들은 물속에 용해된 카드뮴과 망간 이온을 친환경적이며 경제적으로 처리하는 새로운 제거 기술에 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

Iron and manganese problems in ground water affect far more water systems than almost any other water quality concern. The purpose of this study is to find the optimum condition of ozonation for the removal of dissolved iron, manganese and other organics in the polluted ground water. We proposed 4mg/l, 8mg/l as optimum ozone dose for the removal of $Fe^{2+},{\;}Mn^{2+}$, respectively. The removal efficiencies of $COD_{Mn}$ and $COD_{Cr}$ in ozone dose of 2mg/l - 6mg/l were about 40-50%. The removal efficiency of $NH_{3}-N$ was about 30-40% at pH8.5. In conclusion, it needs further systematic study and research concerned to treatability of $Fe^{2+},{\;}Mn^{2+}$ and biodegradability of organic compounds using Ozonation followed by biological filtration process in ground water treatment train.

Experiments have been made to test the practical feasibility of using calcined manganese ore to desulfurize hot reducing gas. In this study, the effects of particle size of sorbents, temperature of sulfidation, flow rate and sorbent characteristics on the $H_2S$ removal efficiency of calcined manganese ore were investigated. Experimental results showed that the removal efficiency of $H_2S$ was optimum when the temperature was about 800$\circ$C and that the smaller particle size the higher the $H_2S$ removal efficiency. When the temperature was above 800$\circ$C, the reactivity of sorbent has lowered because agglomeration of sorbent increased intraparticle transport resistance, and this phenomenon was confirmed by SEM photographs. As the temperature increases, capacity for the $H_2S$ removal was increased but the equilibrium concentration of $H_2S$ was not affective.

Arsenic (As) contamination in drinking water is severe problem for about 100 million people who live in Bangladesh, Cambodia, Nepal, India, Vietnam, Myanmar, Mongolia, and Ethiopia etc. Chronic doses cause skin cancer, blackfoot disease, and cardiac damage. Even though the biosand filter (BSF) is popular in many developing countries, it could not remove effectively hazardous ions as As. Adsorbent is effective and feasible to reduce As. In this study the improved biosand filter (iBSF) was embedded with adsorbent, was tested to evaluate As removal as well as organic removal. In 20 days removal of turbidity, bacteria, and $UV_{254}$ have shown 60-95 % removal. Arsenic was removed more than 99.9 % in the columns embedded with silica oxides of ferric manganese ($FM{\alpha}$) while 5.8 ~ 38.3 % in columns without $FM{\alpha}$. Isotherm test showed that average amount of the adsorbed arsenic on the oxides was 0.56 mg/G.

It is well known that manganese is hard to oxidize under neutral pH condition in the atmosphere while iron can be easily oxidized to insoluble iron oxide. The purpose of this study is to identify removal mechanism of manganese in the D water treatment plant where is treating bank filtered water in aeration and rapid sand filtration. Average concentration of iron and manganese in bank filtered water were 5.9 mg/L and 3.6 mg/L in 2008, respectively. However, their concentration in rapid sand filtrate were only 0.11 mg/L and 0.03 mg/L, respectively. Most of the sand was coated with black colored manganese oxide except surface layer. According to EDX analysis of sand which was collected in different depth of sand filter, the content of i ron in the upper part sand was relatively higher than that in the lower part. while manganese content increased with a depth. The presence of iron and manganese oxidizing bacteria have been identified in sand of rapid sand filtration. It is supposed that these bacteria contributed some to remove iron and manganese in rapid sand filter. In conclusion, manganese has been simultaneously removed by physicochemical reaction and biological reaction. However, it is considered that the former reaction is dominant than the latter. That is, Mn(II) ion is rapidly adsorbed on ${\gamma}$-FeOOH which is intermediate iron oxidant and then adsorbed Mn(II) ion is oxidized to insoluble manganese oxide. In addition, manganese oxidation is accelerated by autocatalytic reaction of manganese oxide. The iron and manganese oxides deposited on the surface of the sand and then are aged with coating sand surface.

망간단괴는 높은 비표면적과 주 구성성분이 ${\delta}$-MnO$_2$ 이기 때문에 폐수 중의 중금속 흡착제로서 적합하다. 본 연구에서는 구리 함유 폐수를 이용하여 고정형 컬럼과 bed형 흡착장치를 사용하여 현장에서 망간단괴의 중금속 흡착제로서 사용 가능성에 대하여 검토하였다. l kg의 망간단괴 (입자크기 1-3 cm)를 사용하여 구리이온을 0.97 g/L 함유한 폐수를 3시간 처리한 결과 고정형 칼럼과 고정형 bed에서 각각 4.0g과 2.3g의 구리가 흡착, 제거되었다.

본 연구에서는 저온에서 질소산화물 저감효율이 뛰어난 것으로 알려진 망간전구체의 종류에 따른 영향을 고찰하기 위해 초임계수열법으로 합성한 세리아($CeO_2$)와 지르코니아($ZrO_2$)를 담체로 하여 저온 SCR 공정에서의 온도에 따른 활성변화를 비교 분석하였다. Manganese acetate (MA)와 Manganese nitrate (MN), 두 종류 망간전구체의 농도를 영향인자로 고려하여 촉매의 활성변화를 고찰하였다. 활성화된 시료의 특성은 $N_2$ adsorption-desorption, TGA, XRD, XPS를 통해 분석하였고 질소산화물 저감효율을 측정하기 위해 NOx 분석기를 이용하여 De-NOx 실험을 수행하였다. 제조방법에 따라 합성한 촉매의 질소산화물 저감 효율을 분석한 결과 Manganese acetate (MA)를 활성물질로 사용한 촉매가 Manganese nitrate (MN)을 사용한 촉매에 비해 전체적인 온도 영역에서 우수한 질소산화물 저감효율을 보였다. 이는 특성분석 결과를 통해 알 수 있듯이 Manganese acetate (MA)의 주성분인 $Mn_2O_3$가 Manganese nitrate (MN)의 주성분인 $MnO_2$에 비해 높은 산소 이동도를 갖고 담체와의 강한 상호작용을 형성하는 것에 기인한 것으로 보인다.

Papiliotrema huenov was previously reported to be highly tolerant of a range of extremely toxic heavy metals. This study aimed to identify the potential of P. huenov to remove manganese and copper from aqueous solution. Physical conditions which affect removal of Mn(II) and Cu(II) were determined. Optimal temperature for adsorption of both metal ions was 30 ℃, and optimal pH for maximum uptake of Mn(II) and Cu(II) were 5 and 6, respectively. Under these conditions, living cells of P. huenov accumulated up to 75.58% of 110 mg/L Mn(II) and 70.5% of 128 mg/L Cu(II) over 120 h, whereas, the removal efficiency of metal ions by dead cells over 1 h was 60.3% and 56.5%, respectively. These results indicate that living cells are more effective than dead biomass for bioremediation, but that greater time is required. The experimental data extends the potential use of P. huenov in biosorption and bioaccumulation of toxic heavy metals to copper and manganese, two of the most common industrial contaminants.
