Equilibrium Studies of Fluoride Adsorption onto a Ferric Poly−mineral from Kenya by EW Wambu, CO Onindo, W Ambusso, GK Muthakia

“…The adsorption data also correlated to Langmuir and Freundlich models indicating that F adsorption onto FPM was a mixed process involving chemisorption onto surface sites followed by gradual intra-particle penetration of F into mesoporous structure of the mineral. High mean Langmuir adsorption capacity of 10.8 mg/g, indicate that the mineral could be of use as an inexpensive substrate for the removal of F from aqueous streams. …”
