Effect of set potential on hexavalent chromium reduction and electricity generation from biocathode microbial fuel cells.
Setting a biocathode potential at -300 mV improved the subsequent performance of an MFC for Cr(VI) reduction compared to a control (no set potential). With this set potential, the startup time was reduced to 19 days, the reduction of Cr(VI) was improved to 19.7 mg/L d, and the maximum power density was increased to 6.4 W/m(3) compared to the control (26 days, 14.0 mg/L d and 4.1 W/m(3)). Set po...
متن کاملElectrophoretic deposition of carbon nanotube on reticulated vitreous carbon for hexavalent chromium removal in a biocathode microbial fuel cell
For Cr(VI)-removal microbial fuel cell (MFC), a more efficient biocathode in MFCs is required to improve the Cr(VI) removal and electricity generation. RVC-CNT electrode was prepared through the electrophoretic deposition of carbon nanotube (CNT) on reticulated vitreous carbon (RVC). The power density of MFC with an RVC-CNT electrode increased to 132.1 ± 2.8 mW m-2, and 80.9% removal of Cr(VI) ...

Publication 1. A. Manceau et al, “Quantitative Zn speciation in smelter-contaminated soils by EXAFS spectroscopy,” Am. J. Sci. (in press, 2000). Figure 3 (top) Soil samples were taken at several depths from a contaminated site. (bottom) Model compounds derived from polarized-EXAFS data at the ESRF and μ-EXAFS data at the ALS provide a good fit with powder-EXAFS spectra from a soil sample, there...
متن کاملApplication of modified bentonite using sulfuric acid for the removal of hexavalent chromium from aqueous solutions
Background: Environmental contamination by chromium (Cr) has become an important issue due to its adverse effects on human health and environment. This study was done to evaluate the application of modified bentonite using sulfuric acid as an adsorbent in the removal of hexavalent Cr from aqueous solution. Methods: Adsorbent features were determined using x-ray diffraction (XRD), fourier transf...
متن کاملRemoval of hexavalent chromium using coffee husk
The potential to remove chromium(VI) from aqueous solutions through biosorption using coffee husk was investigated. The effects of pH, contact time, initial concentration and adsorbent dosage on the adsorption of Cr(VI) were studied. The data obeyed Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherms. The Langmuir adsorption capacity was found to be 44.95 mg/g. The Freundlich constants Kf and n were 1...
