TL;DR: A comprehensive overview of recent progress on the production and modification of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes for liquid-liquid or liquid-solid separation can be found in this article.
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of solution pH and temperature on the adsorption of fluoride onto bone char made from cattle bones were investigated, and it was found that the maximum adaption took place at pH 3.
Abstract: The effects of solution pH and temperature on the adsorption of fluoride onto bone char made from cattle bones were investigated in this work. It was found that the maximum adsorption took place at pH 3 and the adsorption capacity decreased nearly 20 times augmenting the pH from 3 to 12. This behavior was attributed to the electrostatic interactions between the surface of bone char and the fluoride ions in solution. The adsorption capacity was not influenced by temperature in the range from 15 to 35 °C. A comparison of fluoride adsorption capacities among several adsorbents revealed that the adsorption capacity of the bone char was 2.8 and 36 times greater than those of a commercial activated alumina (F-1) and a commercial activated carbon (F-400). The adsorption capacity is considerably dependent upon the physicochemical properties of the bone char surface and the solution pH.
TL;DR: Methods for the estimation of hydrogen peroxide in acetone extracts using titanium(IV) are likely to overestimate hydrogenperoxide when applied to plant leaves because pigments appear to co-precipitate with the titanium complex and cannot be removed by washing with solvents.
TL;DR: Fluoride contamination in drinking water due to natural and anthropogenic activities has been recognized as one of the major problems worldwide imposing a serious threat to human health as mentioned in this paper, and it has been identified as a major problem worldwide.
