REMOVAL OF FLUORIDE USING SWEET LEMON PEEL IN BATCH REACTOR: KINETICS AND EQUILIBRIUM STUDIES
Tej Pratap Singh and C. B. Majumder*
ABSTRACT
World Health Organization (WHO) sets the range of fluoride in ground water as 1 and 1.5 mg/L for India. The Excess concentration of fluoride creates a problem of health. It affects the human and animals life. Fluoride creates a problem of skeletal as well as dental fluorosis. Small amount of fluoride is needed for dental protection. Its concentration less or more than the standard limits creates health problems. Therefore it is necessary to maintain the permissible range of fluoride in drinking water and hence the study of methods available is needed. This revived paper focus over the different adsorbents with various parameters along the feasibility and fluoride removal efficiency.
Keywords: Fluoride, Ground Water, Bio Adsorbent, Adsorption, Removal.
