Abstract
The removal of fluoride from diluted solution with Neosepta AHA anion exchange membrane has been studied by Donnan dialysis. The effects of concentration, pH, and accompanying anion on feed phase and receiving phase composition were investigated. Neosepta AHA anion exchange membrane was used for the removal of fluoride and the flux of fluoride with respect to the concentration, pH, and the effect of the counter-ions (HCO 3 −, Cl −, SO 4 −2) were obtained between 34–136.10 −7 (m.mol.cm −2.s −1). The effect of the fluoride flux increased with increasing of concentration on the feed phase. The flux of fluoride was found to be higher at higher pH in the feed phase. In addition, the accompanying counter-anions also influenced the flux of fluoride and the order of flux was founded as HCO 3 −>Cl −>SO 4 −2. The results obtained for AHA membrane were compared with Neosepta AFN and polysulfone SB-6407 membranes. The transport efficiencies of the membranes were found to be in the order AFN>AHA>SB-6407.
