Adsorption behaviors of two types of commercial porous resins containing hydrated zirconium and cerium oxide, whose commercial names are READF-(PG) and READF-(HG), respectively, have been investigated for fluoride from aqueous solution. The adsorbents were characterized by XRD, EDX and surface area analyzer. Fluoride adsorption was found to be strongly pH dependent and optimum adsorption on both types of resins was observed at pH 2-4. The measurement of adsorption kinetics of fluoride demonstrated fast adsorption process. The isotherm experiments showed the Langmuir type monolayer adsorption. The complete removal of fluoride from trace concentration can be achieved by using 4 g/L of the resins tested under the mentioned experimental condition. The maximum uptake capacity of the READF-(HG) and READF-(PG) were evaluated as 2.35 and 2.10 mmol F/g dry resins. The complete desorption of adsorbed fluoride was successfully achieved by using dilute alkali (NaOH) solution. The column adsorption followed by elution demonstrated the possible application of this system in the continuous system.
