Review On Adverse Effects Of Water Contaminants Like Arsenic, Fluoride And Phosphate And Their Remediation By S P Mishra , M Das and U. N. Dash

Usually drinking water collected from wells, rivers, ponds, lakes, etc. is bio-contaminated. Although, tube well water is free from bacterial contamination, but usually present are some toxic anions (fluoride, arsenate, arsenite, phosphate, chromate and selenate), which also cause various diseases.
