Equilibrium sorption studies for Fluoride content in drinking water of Bore wells of Warud Region on Ferronia Elefuntum Fruit Shell

Major water supply for agriculture and domestic purpose in Warud Region is from Upper Wardha and Shekhadari Dam Water. Even then, resident of most of the areas are mainly dependent on bore well water for domestic and Agriculture purpose especially in summer season. Hence large numbers of bore wells are existed. Fluoride content of selected bore-well water in an around of Warud was analyzed in the month of May, 2011. The study reveals that the fluoride concentration is within the permissible limits in few places as prescribed by BIS and WHO. But in some places it is more than prescribed by BIS and WHO. Hence it is essential to remove these excess fluorides by adsorption.
