Nanoscale Zero-Valent Iron and Chitosan Functionalized <i>Eichhornia crassipes</i> Biochar for Efficient Hexavalent Chromium Removal

Sorption is widely used for the removal of toxic heavy metals such as hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) from aqueous solutions. Green sorbents prepared from biomass are attractive, because they leverage the value of waste biomass and reduce the overall cost of water treatment. In this study, we fabricate...
