Hexavalent chromium removal from aqueous solution by adsorbents synthesized from groundwater treatment residuals

In this study, silica sand coated with groundwater treatment residuals was used as adsorbents for the removal of hexavalent chromium from synthetic wastewater. Batch adsorption experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of initial Cr(VI) concentration, solution pH, adsorbent dosage, solution...
