  2. Defluoridation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defluoridation

    In the 1930s, several nations began to investigate fluoride's negative effects and how best to remove it. An aluminum and sand filter that removes fluorine from water was devised by Dr. S. P. Kramer in 1933; in 1945, M. Kenneth received a French patent for a water defluoridation technique; and in 1952, a functioning activated alumina community ...

  3. Activated alumina - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activated_alumina

    Activated alumina. Activated alumina is manufactured from aluminium hydroxide by dehydroxylating it in a way that produces a highly porous material; this material can have a surface area significantly over 200 m 2 /g. The compound is used as a desiccant (to keep things dry by adsorbing water from the air) and as a filter of fluoride, arsenic ...

  4. Bone char - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bone_char

    The tricalcium phosphate in bone char can be used to remove fluoride [3] and metal ions from water, making it useful for the treatment of drinking supplies. Bone charcoal is the oldest known water defluoridation agent and was widely used in the United States from the 1940s through to the 1960s. [4]

  5. Water purification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_purification

    Water purification. Water purification is the process of removing undesirable chemicals, biological contaminants, suspended solids, and gases from water. The goal is to produce water that is fit for specific purposes. Most water is purified and disinfected for human consumption (drinking water), but water purification may also be carried out ...

  6. Water fluoridation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_fluoridation

    Pitcher or faucet-mounted water filters do not alter fluoride content; the more-expensive reverse osmosis filters remove 65–95% of fluoride, and distillation removes all fluoride. [8] Some bottled waters contain undeclared fluoride, which can be present naturally in source waters, or if water is sourced from a public supply which has been ...

  7. Water filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_filter

    A water filter removes impurities by lowering contamination of water using a fine physical barrier, a chemical process, or a biological process. Filters cleanse water to different extents, for purposes such as: providing agricultural irrigation, accessible drinking water, public and private aquariums, and the safe use of ponds and swimming pools.
