In this talk, the toxic Cr(VI) removal from polluted water by different nanocomposites adsorbents including graphene decorated with magnetic nanoparticles, iron oxide nanoparticles coated with polyaniline, carbon fabric coated with magnetic nanoparticles, etc will be comparatively reported. The effects of initial Cr(VI) concentration, adsorbent dose and pH value on the Cr(VI) removal will be covered. The Cr(VI) removal kinetics in the different pH solutions will be determined. The Cr(VI) removal mechanisms will be investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), energy-filter TEM (EFTEM) and temperature dependent resistivity.
