With the increasing reliance of the aquaculture industry on groundwater resources, the water quality issues caused by excessive iron and manganese concentrations in groundwater have become progressively prominent. Elevated levels of iron and manganese adversely affect the respiration, immune function, growth, and development of aquaculture organisms, thereby restricting the widespread application of groundwater in aquaculture practices. In this study, quartz sand and zeolite were chemically modified using potassium permanganate (KMnO₄) and manganese sulfate (MnSO₄) solutions, while physical modification of zeolite was achieved through high-temperature calcination. Comprehensive characterization of the modified materials was conducted. Iron and manganese filtration experiments were performed to investigate the maturation period required for achieving stable iron-manganese removal efficiency in both modified and unmodified quartz sand and zeolite. The results demonstrated that chemical modification induced the formation of spherical particles on quartz sand surfaces and created dense etching grooves on zeolite, whereas physical modification disrupted the layered structure of calcined zeolite. Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy revealed Mn element proportions of 18.32% and 24.82% on chemically modified quartz sand and zeolite surfaces, respectively, primarily existing as MnO₂. Maximum specific surface areas (7.26 m²/g and 28.57 m²/g) and pore volumes (0.0052 cm³/g and 0.112 cm³/g) were attained for chemically modified quartz sand and 300℃-calcined zeolite. The 400℃-calcined zeolite exhibited peak specific surface area (20.18 m²/g) and pore volume (0.0857 cm³/g). Chemically modified zeolite demonstrated the shortest maturation period for iron and manganese removal, requiring only 10 and 8 days respectively, significantly shorter than unmodified materials. This research provides theoretical foundations and technical references for developing iron-manganese removal technologies in groundwater applications for aquaculture.
