Adsorptive removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous solution using rice husk and rice husk ash

Removal of Cr(VI) from Aqueous Solutions Using Biowastes: Tella Residue and Pea (Pisum sativum) Seed Shell

“…Adsorption has been given due attention these days because of its high removal efficiency, easier applicability in rural areas, and low cost, compared to the alternative technologies listed above [13]. Among the few adsorbents with high adsorption capacity for Cr(VI) removal are chitosan, modified chitosan, steel industry waste material, rice husk, activated alumina, and neem bark [14][15][16]. Biosorption is among the prominent processes for removing metal ions from water and wastewater by using nonliving biomass [17][18][19].…”

Jute (Corchorus olitorius) stick charcoal: a potential bioadsorbent for the removal of Cr(VI) from an aqueous solution

“…Heavy metals have deadly impacts on flora and fauna when they are above the acceptable limit (Saranya et al 2017). One of the most harmful heavy metals is chromium, which exists in the effluent from industries that use chromium, such as industries involved in leather tanning, electroplating, textile production, and chromium-based product manufacturing (Ghosh et al 2018). When chromium exceeds the allowed limit due to its half-filled electrical form, it is hazardous to the ecology.…”

“…(Saranya et al 2018). Cr(VI) is around 300 times more toxic than Cr(III) and because it has high water solubility, it can transport long distances and is highly bioavailable (Ghosh et al 2018). The kidneys, skeletal system, hematological system, and central nervous system in the human body are affected by chromium toxicity (Kaduková & Vircíková 2005).…”

“…The vital metals and metalloids could be toxic if ingested in excess amounts while non-vital metals and metalloids are highly harmful even at low dose for a long time exposure and express diverse health effects such as carcinogenic, non-carcinogenic, mutagenic, teratogenic, etc. Chromium and Ni are identified to create a range of respiratory disorderness, such as lung infection, fibrosis, bronchial asthma, tumors, and epithelial cell injury ( Forti et al., 2011 ; Ghosh et al., 2018 ), while the elevated level of Cu can create primary biliary cirrhosis, chronic hepatitis, liver, and kidney damage ( Fuentealba and Aburto, 2003 ). Lead altered the pathological state in organs and the cerebrospinal nervous system, trigger to damage to skeletal, circulatory, and enzymatic, and reduce children intelligence quotients (IQ).…”
