Groundwater contamination by fluoride (F¯> 1.5 mg/L) is pervasive and typically confined to
arid and semi-arid regions. Therefore, several parts of India are contaminated with F¯ …

The groundwater quality in the vicinity of the Makum coalfield, renowned for its high-sulfur
coal deposits, was investigated. The oxidation of sulfur in the coal generates acid mine …

This study evaluated high fluoride (F−) levels, source distribution, provenance, health risk,
and source apportionment in the groundwater of Sargodha, Pakistan. Therefore, 48 …

Mine water poses severe threats to the quality of the water supply and ecological
environment of the Shendong mining areas owing to its excessive fluoride (F-) content …

To assess the loading profiles of groundwater nitrate (NO3−) and fluoride (F−), their spatial
distributions, geochemistry and associated health risks were determined for 131 …

The present study was initiated by the findings of a comprehensive systematic review and
meta-analysis, which synthesized all available literature on the patterns and trends of …

Elevated fluoride concentration in water can trigger several health-related problems. In this
study, the influence of post pyrolysis hydrothermal activation on defluoridation has been …

The major focus of the research work is on the evaluation of the hydrogeochemical
characteristics, water quality index (WQI), and health risk assessment in a coal mining …

Rising sea levels, groundwater exploitation, and urbanization were the primary causes of
seawater intrusion, exerting pressure on coastal aquifers. In Sri Lanka's urban coastal …

In the selected study region of Sonbhadra district, coal burning and mining activities are
dominant. Previous studies reported F contamination in very few groundwater samples of …
