Fenton Treatment of Filter Backwash Water for Recycling in DWTP
The graphical abstract illustrates the treatment and recycling pathway of filter backwash water (FBW) generated in drinking water treatment plants. The proposed treatment innovatively applies the Fenton advanced oxidation process, using the iron naturally present in the FBW, with a sedimentation step for effective clarification. ABSTRACT Drinking water
