the aim of this paper is eliminating cr(vi) by natural hap. hap is a inexpensive material which is used from bovine critical bone ash in order to remove heavy metal ions like cr(vi). some experiments in different ph are performed (ph=2,3,7). maximum adsorption was appeared at ph=2, dosage=0.3 gr, c0=10 mg/l. cr(vi) removal depends on ph value and initial amount of cr(vi) result of experiments w...

Background and Objectives: Fluoride has both beneficial and detrimental effects on health. Therefore, it is important to determine its concentration in drinking water. Dental fluorosis and skeletal fluorosis are health effects caused by long term exposure to high levels of fluoride in drinking water. The aim of this research was to investigate fluoride removal using modified diatomite-supported...

Abstract Introduction:Fluoride is one of the essential elements for human health and presence of its acceptable value prevents from tooth decay but excessive absorption of fluorine into the body cause many chronic problems such as flourosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of &alpha-Alumina and &gamma -Alumina on removal of fluoride from water. Methods: This experimental ...

Objective and Background: Fluoride is an element widely found in the earth crust. Advantages and disadvantages of fluoride in the human body are depended on its concentration. Long-term consumption of drinking water contaminated with arsenic can cause adverse health effects such as skin lesions and cancer in humans. The aim of this study was to study efficiency of nano alumina on multi walled c...

Backgrounds and Objectives: Determination of Fluoride in drinking water has received increasing interest, duo to its beneifical and detrimental effects on health. The aim of this research is investigation of Effect of  activated alumina in fluoride concentration reduction in drinking water.Materials and Methods: Expriment in batch system and with change effective parameters such as pH(5, 7,9), ...

Introduction: Control of fluoride concentration in drinking water due to health effects is very important. The potential of Cuttlefish bone (CB) as a natural sorbent and the effects of pH, contact time, fluoride concentration and adsorbent dosage for the adsorptive removal of excess fluoride from water were examined. Methods: The study was carried out in laboratory scale via batch reactor. T...

Background and Objectives: fluoride in low concentration is essential for human but in high concentration is very hazardous for human health. The efficacy of Snail Shell (SS) was investigated in this research work as an adsorbent for the elimination of fluoride from aqueous. Methods: in this experimental study, the capability of SS to adsorb fluoride ions was conducted using a series of batch ...
