Abstract

This work describes the elimination of fluoride after a artificial model by adsorption on physical activated carbon made from Phoenix Dactylifera seeds and Magnifera Indica (Mango) seeds at 32°C. Batch studies were accepted out to regulate the best time, dosage, pH, sorption kinetics, and sorption equilibrium for Fluoride removal on physically activated carbon. The optimum contact duration, adsorbent dose, and pH for carbon were 50 minutes, 140 mg, and 7.50, and 40 mins, 200 mg, and 7.50, with fluoride elimination effectiveness of 77.5 percent, 76.5 percent, and 45 percent, 58 percent, and 84 percent, respectively. Isotherms of Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin are well followed.
