Removal of chromium by riverbed sand from water and wastewater: effect of important parameters.
Journal of Hazardous Materials 2008 March 2
Application of riverbed sand, a non-toxic substance for the removal of Cr(VI) for aqueous solutions has been investigated. Removal of Cr(VI) was dependent on initial concentration and removal increased from 43.2% to 74.3% by decreasing initial concentration from 7.5x10(-5) M to 1.0x10(-5) M at 25 degrees C, 1.0x10(-2) M NaClO4 ionic strength and 100 rpm. Higher removal was obtained at particles of smaller sizes of the adsorbent. Removal decreased from 74.3% to 40.7% by increasing temperature from 25 degrees C to 35 degrees C exhibiting exothermic nature of the process of removal. Thermodynamic parameters, namely change in free energy (DeltaG degrees), enthalpy (DeltaH degrees) and entropy (DeltaS degrees), were calculated and were found to be -0.81 kcal mol(-1), -17.21 kcal mol(-1) and 56.94 cal mol(-1), respectively at 25 degrees C. pH of the solution has pronounced effect on the removal and higher removal was obtained in acidic pH ranges, maximum (74.3%) being at 2.5 pH.
