Abstract

In the present work, nickel oxide and iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized inside the pore system of nanoporous carbon and were used as adsorbents to remove hexavalent chromium. The structural order and textural properties of the new carbonaceous adsorbents were studied by X-ray diffraction analysis and nitrogen adsorption. Experiments were conducted in batch mode with the variables such as contact time and solution pH. Adsorption equilibrium was achieved within 3–4 h for initial Cr(VI) of 10–100 mg.L−1. Maximum sorption capacity of Ni–NC and Fe–NC was observed as 0.86 mmol.g−1 and 1.17 mmol.g−1 respectively.
