摘要: The adsorption of toxic hexavalent chromium (Cr (VI)) and its reduction to trivalent chromium (Cr (III)) are important processes for the treatment of industrial wastewater. Conducting polymers can adsorb and reduce Cr (VI) to less toxic Cr (III) but have low adsorption capacities due to agglomeration of particles and are difficult to separate from treated water. In this study, magnetic polypyrrole (PPy)–polyaniline (PANI)/iron oxide (Fe 3 O 4) nanocomposite was synthesized for the selective removal of Cr (VI) in aqueous solution …
