Study on domestic waste water treated using modified rice husk sequences slow sand filter (MRHSSSF)

Malaysia is facing river pollution which mainly cause by domestic wastewater. On the other hand, rice husk as the by-product from rice mill created disposal and air pollution problem. Rice husk are believed can remove the water pollutants. The aim of this study is to design a compacted slow sand fil...

Based on the result and analysis, the highest percentages of removal achieved by MRHSSSF in this study for turbidity, TSS, BOD, COD, E.coli, oil and grease, Iron (Fe), Lead (Pb), Zinc (Zn), TDS, Total coliform, are 98.08%, 100%, 100%, 96.12%, 100%, 97.59%, 100%, 100%, 61.19%, 50.17% and 22.79% respectively.
