Abstract

See full text

A system for removing fluoride from wastewater is provided. The system comprises a reaction tank for processing said wastewater by adding calcium salts, a filtration tank for removing the precipitated fluoride formed in the reaction tank, a single fluoride electrode disposed at the reaction tank for measuring a concentration of fluoride in the influent wastewater and providing an output signal, and a programmable controller for controlling addition of said calcium salts into said reaction tank. The programmable controller defines a setpoint of fluoride concentration in the reaction tank and automatically controls addition of calcium salts based on the setpoint and the output signal provided by the single fluoride electrode. A method of removing fluoride from wastewater is also provided.
