    AnnotationThe ferrihydrite and modified ferrihydrite-based adsorbents were explored in the present study to remove selenate and bacterial contamination from drinking water. All the zinc-modified absorbents show >80 % bacterial count reduction, contrary to the unmodified adsorbents (30–40 % reduction). Ferrihydrite-based adsorbent modified with zinc (FH2–10) was the most efficient for selenate adsorption and exhibited the highest bactericidal activity. Sorption experiments showed that for Se (VI) concentration of 400 μg L−1, a sorbent dose of 0.5 g L−1 was sufficient to meet drinking water guidelines within the first 10 min. The maximum adsorption capacity of 40.984 mg/ g was obtained for FH2–10. The regeneration and reuse studies show that the selenium removal efficiency retained was >85 % even after three consecutive adsorption-desorption cycles. Column adsorption studies were performed to assess the adsorbent's field applicability, which inferred the adsorption capacity of 1.3 mg/ g. The FH2–10 adsorbent also showed >95 % bacterial growth reduction against E. coli. Hence the present detailed studies infer that FH2–10 is an efficient material for the simultaneous removal of selenium and bacterial contamination from drinking water, with potential for field application if the sulfate co-ions are not present in higher concentrations.
