“…All the experiments were carried out at room temperature. was as a result of asymmetric and symmetric stretching of the ester C-O bond and this was similar to that reported by [10] on zinc ions removal by EDTAD modified sugarcane bagasse and wood dust. The presence of the characteristic peak at 1630 cm -1 is a result of asymmetric stretching of the carboxylate ion.…”

“…Therefore, the use of a desorbent such as carbonate solution should enable the ion exchange of HCrO4by CO3 2-. On the other hand, the partial desorption of oxyanions of Cr(VI) from different adsorbents has been reported to be due to the phenomenon of aging (Kuo and Bembenek, 2008;Moreira et al, 2018).…”

“…When Cr(VI) comes in contact with an adsorbent that acts as a reducing agent, it is readily being reduced to Cr(III) in an acidic medium due to its high redox potential value. Concerning the reduction-adsorption approach, adsorbents such as activated carbon 18 19 , rice bran 20 , graphene 21 22 , carbon nanotubes 23 – 25 , shale 26 , biomass 27 29 , nano-zerovalent metallic particles 30 32 , dolerite 33 , seeds 34 , chitosan 35 37 amongst others have been modified due to their inherent limitation such as poor functionality that has hindered their application in environmental remediation practice. Hence, it is imperative to design a novel adsorbent that is not just effective but also green and scalable for the removal of Cr(VI) in a large volume of wastewater.…”
