Fluoride removal by mixtures of activated carbon prepared from Neem (Azadirachta indica) and Kikar (Acacia arabica) leaves

Fluoride removal from aqueous solution was investigated using activated carbon developed from mixture of Neem (Azadirachta indica) and Kikar (Acacia arabica) leaves. In this study, the mixture of sizes 0.3 mm and 1.0 mm (1:1, 2:1 and 1:2) adsorbent were prepared by mixing the thermally activated Neem (Azadirachta indica) leaves carbon and thermally activated Kikar (Acacia arabica) leaves carbon, according
