Fluorosis is a major scourge in many countries caused by prolonged consumption of
drinking water with high fluoride content found in groundwater resources. Hydroxyapatite …

Hydroxyapatite (HAP) is an easily synthesizable, low-cost mineral that has been recognized
as a potential material for fluoride removal. Some of the synthesis methods of HAP are quite …

This contribution reports the preparation of hydroxyapatite (HAp) and cationic surfactant
modified forms of HAp powder for fluoride uptake studies from aqueous solution. The …

The severe impact of consumption of excess fluoride on human health has raised concerns
for development of reliable materials for defluoridation of drinking water. This study deals …

This work deals with the fluoride removal studies of a mineral-substituted hydroxyapatite
(mHAp) nanocomposite. The developed hybrid mHAp nanocomposite displays a high …

The present study describes the synthesis and characterization of a hydroxyapatite (HAp)-
based adsorbent derived from biogenic cockle (Anadara granosa) shells for the …

The consumption of too much fluoride ions through drinking water can seriously harm
human health. Thus fluoride ions need to be removed by the novel and efficient …

A novel hydroxyapatite montmorillonite (HAP-MMT) nanocomposite system was synthesized
using a simple wet chemical in situ precipitation method. Neat nano hydroxyapatite (HAP) …

This research work presents the synthesis of hydroxyapatite (Hap) nanorods for
defluoridation of drinking water by using both conventional (CM) and ultrasonication with …

Elevated level of fluoride in groundwater is a concern for human health in developing
countries. This study presents the advantage of synthetic un-calcined hydroxyapatite over …
