Previous work has shown that arsenic can accumulate in drinking water distribution system (DWDS) solids (Lytle et~al., 2004) when arsenic is present in the water. The release of arsenic back into the water through particulate transport and/or
chemical release (e.g. desorption, dissolution) could result in elevated arsenic levels at the consumers' tap. The primary
objective of this work was to examine the impact of pH and orthophosphate on the chemical release (i.e. desorption) of arsenic
from nine DWDS solids collected from utilities located in the Midwest. Arsenic release comparisons were based on the examination
of arsenic and other water quality parameters in leach water after contact with the solids over the course of 168~hours. Results
showed that arsenic was released from solids and suggested that arsenic release was a result of desorption rather than dissolution.
Arsenic release generally increased with increasing initial arsenic concentration in the solid and increasing pH levels (in
the test range of 7 to 9). Finally, orthophosphate (3 and 5 mg PO4/L) increased arsenic release at all pH values examined. Based on the study results, utilities with measurable levels of arsenic
present in their water should be aware that some water quality changes can cause arsenic release in the DWDS potentially resulting
in elevated levels at the consumer's tap. 相似文献
