Metal Removal from Industrial Waste by Hydrochloric Acid

Removal of chromium from industrial waste by using eucalyptus bark.

Several low cost biomaterials such as baggase, charred rice husk, activated charcoal and eucalyptus bark (EB) were tested for removal of chromium. All the experiments were carried out in batch process with laboratory prepared samples and wastewater obtained from metal finishing section of auto ancillary unit. The adsorbent, which had highest chromium(VI) removal was EB. Influences of chromium c...

Removal of Heavymetals (Cr) From Aqueous Solution Using Industrial Waste

Dolochar which is a solid waste generated by the sponge iron industries is a major concern worldwide. In this paper an attempt has been made to investigate the properties (i.e. physical and chemical) so as to reutilize it as absorbent to absorb the pollutants present in water. The adsorption behavior of dolochar using batch process has been studied to remove hexavalent chromium from synthetic w...

Toxic Industrial Chemical Removal by Isostructural Metal-organic Frameworks

Removal of Cu & Zn from industrial wastewater by using steel industry waste ( Slag ) as an adsorbent

Department of Applied Sciences & Humanities, Moradabad Institute of Technology, Ram Ganga Vihar Phase – 2, Moradabad-244001 Abstract The removal of two heavy metals Cu and Zn from their aqueous solution, using steel industry slag as an adsorbent was studied as slag consist of calcium oxide, aluminum oxide, magnesium oxide etc. The research is a bench scale experimental type and analysis have pe...

Extraction of Alumina from Local Clays by Hydrochloric Acid Process

A bench work study was carried out to investigate the use of kaolinitic clay containing 29.4% Al2O3 extremely abundant in Saudi Arabia for the production of pure alumina by calcination at 700 o C for 1h (recommended by previous investigators) then leached by hydrochloric acid. The effects of leaching temperature (25 o C to boiling temperature), period of activation (10-150 minutes), acid concen...
