Research Progress of AOPs on Algae Control and Odor Removal in Drinking Water
Water bloom occurrs frequently in the headwaters,which threatens water quality safety.Geosmin(GSM)and 2-methylisoborneol(2-MIB)are common odorous substances metabolized by algae,which are perceived as resulting the main causes of odor in water.Although,the conventional removal technology can remove algae,the removal effect on the odorous substances is not satisfactory.Based on the correlation between algae and odor products,this paper summarizes the limitations of conventional algal removal technology,introduces the research and application of advanced oxidation processes(AOPs)for the removal of both,and believes that AOPs can become a research hotspot of synchronous algal removal and odor removal technology,providing a theoretical basis for further research and application of simultaneous algal removal and odor removal technology.
