Large number of people in rural areas are dependent on ground water for drinking purpose. The present study investigates the study of fluoride in the level of groundwater of various places in Jaipur city of Rajasthan state and collecting of ten samples of different places in Jaipur city from bore wells and hand pump. In the current research paper by employing SPANDS method, fluoride ion concentrations in water were determined spectrophotometrically at 570 nm. First and then Brick powder (BP) was used as adsorbents in defluoridation of water. In this paper, dose of adsorbents, contact time and concentration of fluoride ions will be discussed with their interdependence Both the Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherms fitted well for the fluoride adsorption on bricks powder with the regression coefficient of 0.99762 and 0.99766, respectively.
