Mechanism of action

FLUOREX adsorbent media removes fluoride through a mechanism based on:

  • Physical filtration:  Retention of particles in the porous structure, maximizing fluoride exposure to the active medium.
  • Ion exchange:  Replacement of anions such as OH- by F- at specific active sites on the material.
  • Chemical adsorption:  The active surfaces of the material interact with fluoride ions through ionic bonding and formation of stable complexes.
 
This mechanism combines chemical and physical efficiency to ensure rapid and sustained fluoride removal, even at low initial concentrations.

Adsorption kinetics

The dynamic behavior of the FLUOREX adsorbent material under standard conditions shows superior kinetics, reaching equilibrium quickly. Reaching 70% removal in just 12 minutes.
