Removal of chromium (VI) from aqueous solution using vesicular basalt: A potential low cost wastewater treatment system

In this study, vesicular basalt volcanic rock was taken and its application for adsorption of chromium (VI) from aqueous solution was investigated. Different physical and chemical properties of the powdered rock was studied using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Powder X-ray diffract...
