How to Remove Fluoride from Water

[hockey1212]

I have the stats on a well in a rural area and need to devise a way to make the fluoride level safe to drink.

Assume I had to treat 1000 L per day and I wanted to get the fluoride concentration down to 1-2mg/L, how would I do that or show some calculations?

 

the details of the well im focusing on are:

 

pH=7.9

TDS= 975

[F-]= 13.1 mg/L

[CO3^2-]= 3.0 mg/L

[Ca2+]= 5 mg/L

 

I know I need to precipitate it but im not sure how to show calculations for it or what to use. Any help would be amazing.
