Removal of fluoride from groundwater using natural clay (kaolinite): Optimization of adsorption conditions
Note from Fluoride Action Network: “Since all methods [to remove fluoride] produce a sludge with very high concentration of fluoride that has to be disposed of, only water for drinking and cooking purposes should be treated, particularly in the developing countries.” Reference: Fluorosis (see Interventions), World Health Organization Abstract This article focuses on the application […]

An insight into the drinking-water access in the health institutions at the Saharawi refugee camps in Tindouf (Algeria) after 40years of conflict.
Highlights Drinking water access at the Saharawi refugee camps (Algerian desert) was assessed. Risk of microbial Contamination of water storage tanks was medium-high on average. Raw water with high levels of fluoride is still used directly by two refugee camps. Pending issues: treated water for all, monitoring, adequate storage and maintenance. Potential health impact associated […]

Distribution and Removal of Fluoride Ions in the Drinking Waters in the Algerian South (Ouargla as a Showcase)
Abstract In certain countries, the Algerian South in particular, where the scarcity of drinking water resources of good quality has constrained the local populations to consume the underground waters that are rich in fluoride. Fluoride constitutes an essential component for the human body in moderate rates, between 0.5 to 1.5 mg/l of the consumed water. Nonetheless […]

Physico-Chemical Water Quality in Some Regions of Southern Algeria and Pretreatment Prediction
The aim of this study was to determine the physico-chemical and microbiological quality of drinking water regions of southern Algeria For this purpose, 16 samples 15 water samples from the cities of El Oued, Ouargla, Ghardaia and Adrar were taken either at the consumer’s tap, or from well water. Our results show that the physical […]
