Review on Effects of Fluoride Contamination and Remediation Methods

  • Abstract:
  • Surface water resources in Rajasthan are not abundant so people are dependent on ground water for their needs. One of the main sources of fluoride ingestion is water. If the fluoride ion concentration (CF) in drinking water is less than 1.5 mg/L, fluoride is good for your health (WHO 1994). It is important to voice concerns on the alarmingly high fluoride levels in groundwater. The health of people is negatively impacted by these contaminants' increased amounts. Too much fluoride poses major risks to one's health since it affects the teeth and bones. Three types of fluorosis are present in the disease: non-skeletal, skeletal, and dental. Dental fluorosis can result in pitting and leaves teeth with diffuse dark stains. The backbone and joints become extremely painful and rigid due to skeletal fluorosis. Various techniques are employed for the removal of fluoride from ground water in the paper but the upmost requirement is to make people aware to minimize those practices that make the water more contaminated of these pollutants.
