ABSTRACT

Fluoride contamination in potable water and ground water streams due to natural and anthropogenic activities

has been known as one of the key problems worldwide imposing a serious threat to human health. Amongst the

various treatment methods available for fluoride removal, adsorption process is regarded as efficient and

practical. A general list of various inorganic, organic and natural adsorbents from literature has been compiled

and discussed. The effects of different parameters such as pH, initial fluoride concentration, temperature,

contact time, adsorbent surface charge, etc. were also discussed. This review paper incudes the entire spectrum

of adsorbents used for defl uoridation, factors affecting adsorptive defl uoridation process, and also discussed

the isotherms and kinetics used for the data interpretation.
