In this study, porous corn starch was loaded with Zr, Al, Fe or La to produce the composites PS-Zr, PS-Al, PS-Fe and PS-La. Fluoride adsorption from water was tested at different biosorbent dosages, contact times, solution pH values and initial fluoride concentrations. The biosorbents were characterized by microscopy and spectroscopy. PS-Zr was shown superior defluoridation capacity over a pH range of 3.0-9.0. The adsorption process could be described by the Langmuir isotherm model and the Lagergren pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The maximum fluoride adsorption capacity calculated to be for PS-Zr was 25.41mg/g. Our results revealed that PS-Zr could be employed as an effective biosorbent for removal of fluoride from drinking water.
