Toxicity of Fluorides in the Environment

The work in this book concentrates on looking into the innovation activity of Fluoride in last few years’ records to understand technical breakthroughs and exploitation by industry in the field of air, water and soil quality. The aim is to understand innovation activity in the technology, which includes chemical, physical and biological processes affecting flora, fauna, water, air and soil in relation to Fluoride toxicity pollution. Fluoride is essential for the maintenance of solidity of our bones, and also protect us from dental decay, It is applied through toothpaste twice a day. Fluoride is released from the industries are very dangerous, as it can cause death at very high concentrations. At low concentrations it causes eye and nose irritations. This book deals with the principles and application of various instruments with fluoride experiments, and is useful for B.S, M.S., B.Tech. M.Tech. and PhD in Environmental Chemistry Students and those working in Fluoride/ Dental research Laboratories.
