The study found that naturally occurring Cr(III) will readily oxidize to Cr(VI) when it comes in contact with MnO2, forming a highly mobile and toxic groundwater contaminant.
The heterogeneous oxidation of Cr(III) to Cr(VI), a toxic inorganic anion, by a synthetic birnessite (delta-MnO2) was investigated in batch reactions using a combination of analytical techniques including UV-Vis spectrophotometry, microwave plasma-atomic emission spectrometry, X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), to evaluate both the solution speciation of Cr(III)/Cr(VI) and the surface of the reacted delta-MnO2. The formation of dissolved Mn(II) was determined during the batch reactions to evaluate the extent and stoichiometry of the Cr(III) oxidation reaction. A stoichiometric 3:2 Mn(II):Cr(VI) molar relationship was observed in the reaction products. The reductive dissolution of the delta-MnO2 by Cr(III) resulted in a surface alteration from the conversion of Mn(IV) oxide to reduced Mn(II) and Mn(III) hydroxides. The results of this investigation show that naturally occurring Cr(III) will readily oxidize to Cr(VI) when it comes in contact with MnO2, forming a highly mobile and toxic groundwater contaminant.
