Fluoride, one of the wastes from the fertilizer industry and some manufacturing plants, mixes with water and causes various anatomical and various harms when it is ingested by organisms. Its concentration can be reduced more easily by the absorption method than by various methods to remove fluoride from water, this is called defluoridation. Fluoride, which has an opposite charge property, can be easily removed by a positively charged material.
