Highly efficient removal of Cr(VI) from water with nanoparticulated zerovalent iron: Understanding the Fe(III)-Cr(III) passive outer layer structure
Nanoscale zerovalent iron (nZVI) particles were successfully employed for Cr(VI) removal from aqueous solutions at pH 3. It was found that the capacity of the system increases with increasing nZVI dosage. Starting at 300. μM, a complete Cr(VI) conversion was achieved in 30. min with a Fe:Cr(VI) mola...

It was found that the capacity of the system increases with increasing nZVI dosage.
