Adsorption characteristics of magnetic nanoparticles coated mixed fungal biomass for toxic Cr(VI) ions in aquatic environment

A. Saravanan et al.

Summary: This research demonstrates the adsorptive removal of Cr(VI) ions from aquatic environment using newly synthesized magnetic nanoparticles coated mixed fungal biomass (MNP-FB). The study shows that MNP-FB is efficient and economically suitable for the removal of Cr(VI) ions from water.

Characterization of biospheric bacterial community on reduction and removal of chromium from tannery contaminated soil using an integrated approach of bio-enhanced electrokinetic remediation

Adikesavan Selvi et al.

Summary: Intensive research efforts have focused on reducing toxic Cr(VI) to less toxic Cr(III), but many methods end up with improper removal or recurrence. This study characterized the biospheric bacterial community using Metagenomics and elucidated the bio-mechanisms behind the reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) by FeS particles. The BEER approach effectively removed Cr and Fe in contaminated soil, with sulphide content enhancing Cr reduction and removal.
