Highlights Calcination of Fe-modified MgO (CMF) was investigated for fluoride treatment. Electrostatic attraction, ion exchange, and hydrogen bonding are adsorption mechanisms. Fluoride was adsorbed at a low concentration (10 mg/L) with 95.2% removal rate. Theoretical adsorption capacity was 126.79 mg/g. DFT results explain the bonding mode of fluoride and the adsorbent. Abstract Three-dimensional porous rhombohedral […]
