Abstract
Current conventional treatment system faced inefficiencies of treatment performance especially dealing with highly turbid water. Lift Pore Controlled Fiber (LPCF) filtration system is one of those developed membrane type filtration system designed to be used for producing high quality drinking water. This report presents the study on the performance of LPCF filtration system on removing chemical and physical pollutant in raw water. The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficiency and effectiveness of this system in removing selected physical and chemical pollutant in raw water namely TOC, TN, TSS, turbidity, pH and conductivity. Average removal efficiency by the system for TOC, TN, TSS and turbidity are found to be at 75.35%, 11.39%, 87.9% and 99.6% respectively. Conductivity and pH were not affected by the treatment system with relative increment of 4.09% and 8.66% respectively. This indicates that the system is effective in removal of selected parameters in water, with better effectiveness for the chemical parameters studied.
