Adsorptive Removal of Cr (VI) from Aqueous Solution onto Charred Sugar Cane Bagasse

Removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous solution by adsorption onto low cost non-conventional adsorbents

Adsorption behavior of chromium, Cr(VI) from wastewater has been investigated using clarified sludge (a steel plant waste material), rice husk ash and sawdust as non-conventional adsorbents. The studies were carried out at room temperature (30C) following batch adsorption technique in a reciprocating shaker. Factors affecting the adsorption characteristics such as agitation time, initial metal ...

Removal of Chromium (VI) from Aqueous Solution using Charred Pomegranate Waste

Removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous solution was studied using charred pomegranate fruit waste [CPW] as a new low cost biosorbent under batch method at room temperature. Its efficiency for removal of Cr(VI) was compared with raw pomegranate fruit waste[RPW]. Various sorption parameters such as contact time, initial concentration of Cr(VI) ion and effect of pH on the adsorption capacity of the biosor...

Adsorptive removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous solutions by cross-linked chitosan/bentonite composite

−Cross-linked chitosan/bentonite composite (CCB) was prepared, and characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, BET surface area and pore diameter analyses, X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns and thermal gravimetric analyses (TGA). The adsorption of hexavalent chromium Cr(VI) onto CCB as a function of adsorbent dosage, initial Cr(VI) concentration, solution pH, and contact tim...

Use of Agricultural Waste for Removal of Cr(VI) from Aqueous Solution

Adsorptive Removal of Chromium (VI) from Aqueous Solutions by using Sugar and Distillery Waste Material

Raw bagasse, Bagasse fly ash and distillery sludge, the waste generated in sugar mills and distillery have been used as lowcost potential biosorbent for the removal of hexavalent chromium from an aqueous solution. The effect of hydrogen ion concentration, contact time, adsorbent dose, initial concentrations of adsorbate and adsorbent dose on the uptake of chromium were studied in batch experime...
