| Abstract | The enhanced surface properties of graphene oxide (GO) illustrate its vital role in environmental remediation. However, it is difficult to use it in column studies as it causes a pressure drop during field applications. To overwhelm its drawbacks and to improve its adsorption feature, GO was synthesized in a usable bead form by interspersing GO within an alginate (Alg) polymeric matrix and cross-linked with La(III) ions (GOAlgLa). The synthesized GOAlgLa composite beads not only display good field applications but also demonstrate an extremely enhanced defluoridation capacity (DC) compared with GO and calcium cross-linked alginate beads (AlgCa). The DC of GOAlgLa, AlgCa composite beads and GO was found to be 6617, 618 and 2438 mg F− kg−1, respectively. To determine the effect of different influencing parameters, such as pH, contact time, competitor co-anions, temperature and initial fluoride concentration, studies were conducted in batch mode. The sorbents were analyzed using various characterization techniques such as FTIR, TEM, SEM, EDAX, and Raman analysis. The characteristics of the sorption process were investigated using Freundlich, Langmuir, and D–R isotherms. The value of the thermodynamic parameters indicates that the fluoride sorption onto GOAlgLa composite beads was endothermic and spontaneous in nature. GOAlgLa composite beads also reveal a good regenerability over repeated adsorption/desorption processes. The applicability of hybrid beads to field water sample indicate its adaptable nature at field conditions. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
