This study delves into the efficacy of fluoride removal from water via adsorption employing three distinct adsorbents: GS, MP, and SSP. The investigation explores diverse factors influencing the adsorption process, including initial fluoride concentration, pH, stirring rate, contact time, and temperature. Results indicate that removal efficiency diminishes with escalating initial fluoride concentration, attributable to the finite active sites on the adsorbent surface. Optimal pH conditions emerge as pivotal for effective adsorption, while extreme pH levels may impede the process. Stirring rate and contact time dictate the adsorption kinetics, exhibiting an initial rapid adsorption phase followed by equilibrium. Temperature fluctuations elicit differential impacts on removal efficiency for each adsorbent, underscoring the nuanced role of temperature in the process. In sum, this research furnishes valuable insights for refining fluoride removal from water via adsorption techniques.
