Characterization & Batch Sorption Study for Chromium (VI) Removal fromAqueous Solutions by Activated Carbon Adsorbent Prepared from Indigenous Sugarcane Bagasse
Abstract:Chromium being a carcinogenic element present in drinking water in the less developed areas in the poor countries contributes to many infectious diseases. The removal of chromium traces from water needs to have an easy and efficient way for poor countries. Concerning this, a low-cost industrial bio-adsorbent based on bagasse (the sugar industry waste) is prepared and characterized for Cr (VI) removal from aqueous solutions. Preparation of the absorbent is performed by carbonization and steam activation of suga… Show more
