Abstract In this paper, the optimum fluoride component in the multifunctional refining flux used for recycling aluminum scrap was determined. Theoretical analysis of solid fluxing shows that strong stripping ability of oxide layer on aluminum surface for the flux and appropriate interfacial tensions between Al melt / inclusion (o-M-I), flux / inclusion (o-F-I), and flux […]
SANDY — An independent investigation by an engineering firm looking at last year’s fluoride overfeed in Sandy that sickened hundreds of residents reveals missteps at all levels by government agencies handling the emergency. Those agencies include the city of Sandy, the Salt Lake County Health Department and the state division with responsibility over regulating drinking […]
Abstract In the arid to semi-arid district of Chengcheng, Weinan City, in central Shaanxi Province, diminishing groundwater reserves in the shallow Quaternary (QLB) aquifer and elevated fluoride in the similarly shallow Permo-Triassic (PTF) aquifer, have promoted interest in the development of groundwater resources in the deep but poorly understood Cambrian-Ordovician carbonate aquifer system (COC). To […]
Highlights Shallow groundwater in NE La Pampa province is saline and has elevated arsenic, and fluoride levels Weathering of carbonate minerals controls groundwater chemistry During dry seasons trace elements accumulate in discharge areas due to evaporation Abstract Elevated Arsenic (As) and Fluoride (F) concentrations in groundwater have been studied in the shallow aquifers of northeastern […]
Residents have been invited by the City to help Council consider whether or not fluoride should be added to the municipal water supply. Kingston’s water does not have fluoride added to it currently and one of Council’s strategic priorities, falling under its goal to ‘foster healthy citizens and vibrant spaces‘, is to study the feasibility […]
Iran’s Bushehr nuclear power plant has been in operation for almost ten years.Credit: Majid Asgaripour/AP/Shutterstock Iran has accumulated 1,200 kilograms of enriched uranium — more than doubling the stockpile it had just three months ago, according to a statement from a senior official at the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran on 25 January. That’s enough […]
Note from the Fluoride Action Network, At last the New York Times has ran something on a fluoride study, however fleeting. In the article below the author writes, “One study is just one study” as if the JAMA Pediatrics study she cites by Green et al., published in August 2019, titled Association Between Maternal Fluoride […]

You can finally see why baby’s gums have been […]
Note from Fluoride Action Network, Health departments across the country are operating on outdated information about the “safe” level of fluoride exposure. This article suggests that 2 ppm is “safe” whereas it is nearly three times the allowable level in fluoridation schemes and three times higher than what caused harm in the most recent Mother-Offspring […]
