Batch Sorption Study of Chromium (VI) On Dye Contaminated Soil

Priya Vijayvergiya , Shweta Saxena

Adsorption of Chromium on dye contaminated soil has been studied using batch adsorption technique. This study is carried out to examine adsorption capacity of Chromium on contaminated soil. The influence of contact time, pH, variation of amount of soil, initial Cr Concentration, and particle size also studied. Results revealed that adsorption rate initially increases and equilibrium reached about one hour. Further increase in contact time did not show significant change in equilibrium concentration. The Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm were used to describe the adsorption equilibrium studies. Langmuir isotherm is best fits.
