According to the World Health Organization (WHO) reports, Iran is located in the global fluoride belts, so that is why carrying out extended research on this contaminant anion in water supplies must be considered. Due to the various industries in the Ardakan city, this region is severely suffering from fluoride contamination. This study was designed to investigate the fluoride concentration and its distribution pattern as well as related health risk assessment in groundwater resources of 28 villages of the Ardakan city in Yazd province using SPADNS method according to standard instructions. Our results show that, the average concentration of fluoride was 2.92 mg/l (range: 0.9-6 mg/l), also in half of the villages, the concentration range of this element was over than standard level (1.5 mg/l) given by WHO rules. In addition, risk assessment results showed that HQ value is higher than 1 in 46.4% of samples of groundwater resources in age groups of infants, children, teenagers and adults. Therefore, it is necessary to take measures to reduce fluoride concentration in drinking water in order to control resultant fluorosis. Actions should be implemented to enhance monitoring of fluoride levels to avoid the potential risk of high Fluoride concentration.
根据世界卫生组织（WHO）的报告，伊朗位于全球氟化物带，因此必须考虑对供水系统中的这种污染物阴离子进行深入研究。由于阿尔达坎市有各种工业，该地区正遭受严重的氟化物污染。本研究旨在根据标准说明，采用SPADNS法调查亚兹德省阿尔达坎市28个村庄地下水资源中的氟化物浓度及其分布模式以及相关健康风险评估。我们的结果表明，氟化物的平均浓度为2.92毫克/升（范围：0.9 - 6毫克/升），而且在一半的村庄中，该元素的浓度范围超过了世界卫生组织规定的标准水平（1.5毫克/升）。此外，风险评估结果显示，在婴儿、儿童、青少年和成年人年龄组的地下水资源样本中，46.4%的样本的危害商（HQ）值高于1。因此，有必要采取措施降低饮用水中的氟化物浓度，以控制由此产生的氟中毒。应采取行动加强对氟化物水平的监测，以避免高氟化物浓度带来的潜在风险。
