摘要:Water contamination by fluoride is a common problem present
in many regions of the world. The excess of fluorine leads to many health
issues. For that reason, the World Health Organisation estimated the
permissible fluoride concentration to 1.5 mg F-
/dm3. In this paper
defluoridation process with the use of electrodialysis was described. During
research standard cation-exchange (PC-SK) and mono-anion permselctive
membranes (PC-MVA) were applied. The current density was equal to
1.72 mA/cm2 (it corresponded with a current intensity equal to 0.11 A) in
the course of experiments. The tested solutions contained fluoride, organic
matter (humic acids) and sodium chloride. The volume of diluate and
concentrate was equal to 2 dm3 each. The fluoride concentration amounted
to 5, 10, 100 and 200 mg F-
/dm3. The sodium chloride content amounted to
0.5 g NaCl/dm3, whereas humic acids concentration was equal to 5, 10 and
15 mg/dm3. It has been noticed that the fluoride content has influenced
on the energy demand, removal efficiency and process duration. In few cases
electrodialysis allowed to decrease the fluoride content under permissible
level for drinking water and the F- removal efficiency was very satisfying
for the most part.
