Geochemistry and sources of fluoride and nitrate contamination of groundwater in Lar area, south Iran

Abstract: Groundwater quality in bone-dry and semiarid areas of Iran is decreasing because of contaminants from natural origins and anthropogenic sources. Among many harmful contaminants, nitrate and fluoride ions are more common. This study was carried out with the aim of determining geochemical processes controlling chemistry of groundwater with special reference to nitrate and fluoride enrichment in groundwater in Lar plain aquifer, south of Iran. Groundwater samples were collected from 17 sites and analyzed for main… Show more

“…Wanf et al (2002) ranked the fluoride leaching ability of different soils as follows: drab soil > sierozem > black soil > purplish soil > red soil > dark brown earth. According to the findings of Rezaei et al (2017), ion exchange between fluorite and calcite is important in controlling fluoride concentration in water.…”
