Surface modified Cerium(IV)-incorporated hydrous Fe(III) oxide (CIHFO) with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) nanocomposite (βC-CIHFO) has been developed by in-situ wet chemical deposition method and characterized by means of some analytical tools such as FTIR, XRD,OM, SEM-EDX, TEM-EDX, AFM, TG-DTA and BET surface area analyses, resembled the irregular and undulated surface morphology consisting of microcrystals (∼2-3 nm) and mesoporous (∼6.022 nm) structure confirm surface amended CIHFO with β-CD. Enhanced fluoride adsorption capacity of βC-CIHFO (107.62 mg g) than pure CIHFO (32.62 mg g) at pH 7.0 is due to the plenty of surface -OH groups of β-CD, which plays a crucial role in enhancing fluoride adsorption capacity of CIHFO. Kinetic studies obeyed pseudo-second order kinetics and multilayer adsorption process, respectively. The adsorption process is reasonably spontaneous and endothermic in nature. Minute amount of βC-CIHFO (1.8 g L) can effectively treat fluoride containing natural groundwater samples (9.05 mg L) and achieved desirable permissible level in a while. The adsorbent was magnificently regenerated up to 75.19% with a solution of pH 13.0, and can be reused up to five cycles ensures sustainable use of proposed adsorbent for fluoride removal from aqueous media.

Polysilicate-ferric-calcium-lanthanum (PSFCL) was synthesized through a co-polymerization method in order to treat the yellow phosphorus wastewater. Its morphology, composition and functional group were analyzed by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform-Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Scanning Electron Microscopic (SEM) and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), respectively. The optimization of the flocculant was also investigated, including La/Si molar ratio, pH, agitation time, dosage and sedimentation time.

Al(III)-based adsorbents have a strong affinity for F, but suffer from problems such as poor structural stability, easy decomposition, and recycling difficulties in the powdered form. Herein, for the efficient removal of F from wastewater, magnetic chitosan/AlOOH/polyethyleneimine (MCAlP) adsorbents with a hierarchical porous structure, multifunctional groups, and structural stability were constructed through chelation, cross-linking, and immobilization strategies using chitosan as a carrier. The adsorption capacity of MCAlP for F was found to be 14.

To mitigate the risk associated with water-soluble fluoride in tea and to have less influence on the contents of tea infusion, a highly selective lanthanum modified silk fibroin (SF) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) composite film (SF/PVA-La) was prepared to remove fluoride from brick tea infusion. Notably, SF/PVA-La could remove about 48 % of the fluoride from in brick tea infusion within 30 min. Importantly, the reduction in total tea polyphenols in brick tea did not exceed 10 %, and the reduction in caffeine was only 0.

Amorphous-dominated magnesium oxide hollow spheres (A-MgO) were prepared using a spray-drying method in this study. These hollow spheres exhibited excellent sphericity, large specific surface areas, and abundant porosity. A-MgO exhibited outstanding fluoride adsorption properties, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 260.
