Abstract:
Fluoride contamination in mine water poses significant risks to ecological environments and drinking water safety. Addressing the challenge of 8 000 m3/d fluoride-containing mine water (3~10 mg/L F-) from Xiadian Gold Mine, this study systematically evaluated mainstream defluorination technologies. A flocculation-precipitation coupled reverse osmosis (RO) membrane process was proposed. Results demonstrated that flocculation pretreatment achieved 80%~90% turbidity reduction and synergistically removed 50%-80% fluoride. Subsequent RO treatment further reduced fluoride to 0.2~0.58 mg/L, The effluent water quality stably exceeds the Class I standards of the Comprehensive Emission Standards for Water Pollutants in Watersheds-Part 5: Peninsula Watershed (DB 37/3416.5-2018) and meets the Class II water source water quality requirements of the Environmental Quality Standards for Surface Water  (GB 3838-2002).The integrated process maintained stable operation with a low cost of 0.916 yuan/ton and exhibited strong resistance to influent fluctuations. This research provides an economically viable and technically robust solution for defluorination of high-fluoride mine water, particularly suitable for large-scale applications with moderate-to-high fluoride concentrations and stable water flux. The findings hold significant implications for ecological protection and water resource recycling in mining regions.
