In aqueous systems, chromium usually exists in both trivalent and hexavalent oxidation
states, being Cr (VI) of particular importance and concern due to its great toxicity. Industrial …

Global agriculture is facing tremendous challenges due to climate change. The most
predominant amongst these challenges are abiotic and biotic stresses caused by increased …

In the current study tea waste and rice husk biochars were used for the elimination of Cr (VI)
from wastewater with the objectives to study the effect of pH (3–10), shaking time (0.016–24 …

Lignocellulosic materials have a very complex configuration that contains a variety of active
sites capable, in some cases, of adsorbing contaminants from water. Agave bagasse is a …

For the first time, nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI)–Fe3O4 nanocomposites, prepared by an
in situ reduction method, are employed for chromium (VI) removal in aqueous environment …

Heavy metals are toxic, persistent, carcinogenic and mutagenic in nature. Industrial
wastewater is a widely known source for metal pollution in aquatic bodies as well as surface …

Bioavailability of Nickel in the form of hydrated Nickel (II) attributes to its toxicological effects
and hence its removal from aqueous solution is of great concern. Adsorption is used as an …

The removal of chromium (Cr) from wastewater by various adsorbents has been
investigated. As compared with the commercial activated carbon, the biosorbents with …

Paper, a readily available renewable resource, comprises of interwoven cellulosic fibers,
which can be functionalized to develop interesting low-cost adsorbent material for water …

We report detoxification of Cr (VI) into Cr (III) using electrochemically synthesized polyaniline
(PANI), polypyrrole (PPY), PANI nanowires (PANI-NW) and palladium-decorated PANI …
