Phoenix improves arsenic concentration levels
Like many communities in the desert southwest, Phoenix, Arizona's water supply includes wells with arsenic concentrations exceeding 10 ppb. Long before the USEPA revised the arsenic rule from 50 parts per billion (ppb) to 10, the City of Phoenix began bench and pilot scale studies for arsenic removal options. Early investigations focused on well-known processes like activated alumina and ion exchange as well as less proven concepts such as coagulation-assisted microfiltration.
