Abstract

The ability of lateritic soils to remove fluoride from water has been studied. Important issues considered in the study include the relation between the mineral composition of soils and their ability to remove fluoride, The effect of thermal treatment of the soil on fluoride removal; the predominant fluoride containing species remain in the treated water and the possible mechanism of fluoride removal by lateritic soils. Fluoride contamination in drinking water due to natural and anthropogenic activities has been recognized as one of the major problems worldwide imposing a serious threat to human health. Presence of fluoride in low concentration ( http://www.ijtsrd.com/other-scientific-research-area/enviormental-science/15664/removal-of-fluoride-using-brick-chip-by-adsorption-prepared-from-laterite-soil-area-of-bihar-and-jharkhand/sunita-singh
