Universidad Nacional de Córdoba; Argentina. The presence of arsenic in water used for human consumption is a widespread problem in several regions around the world. Cordoba Province at the center of Argentine has aquifers that naturally contain As and are the main source of drinking water for dispersed rural population. Due to health issues generated by the natural presence of arsenic in aquifers, different remediation techniques have been developed in recent decades for the removal of this compound from water. Available alternatives for arsenic removal include chemical oxidation, precipitation, coagulation, reverse osmosis, adsorption, biological degradation and electrokinetic (Litter et al., 2010). However, adsorption was preferred in many cases due to its low cost and the wide range of reactive materials that may be used for arsenic retention (Mohan and Pittman, 2007; Maji et al., 2008; Jovanović y Rajaković, 2010; Carro Perez and Francisca, 2013a). The adsorbing surfaces or reactive media usually includes activated alumina, iron-based media or other oxides, bauxite, hematite, feldspar, laterite, clay minerals (eg. bentonite and kaolin), activated carbon, cellulosic material, blast furnace slag, surfactant modified zeolite and ion exchange resin, among other. In this work, a low cost natural material is characterized with the purpose of assessing its sorbent capacity. Available batch and column tests experimental results are used for the development and calibration of a domestic filter for the removal of As in drinking water. Fil: Francisca, F. M.
