The levels of iron and manganese ions in the water used by our factory are above the standard; could you please tell me the reason?

Here we use reclaimed water from power plants; it can be softened, but it has high levels of iron and manganese ions
It should be due to the iron removal filter, 1# maradona0901
The excessive levels of these metal ions may be due to the following reasons: 1. Pipeline material issue: The material used has poor corrosion resistance； 2. Corrosion occurs upstream, and it becomes apparent downstream as the water flows ； 3. There are metal components in the pipeline that are more reactive than iron and manganese, causing electrochemical corrosion.
