Removal of Fluoride in Water with Mexican Natural Zeolite

This work presents the results of the fluoride removal in water, through an adsorption process with the use of a natural Mexican zeolite conditioned with calcium, manganese or iron in a fixed bed column system. The XRD and FTIR characterization results demonstrated that the conditioning modifies the...
