| description | Reduction process followed by precipitation is the most common method used in
treating wastewater containing chromium ions. In this study, hexavalent chromium
reduction process was carried out in both acidic and alkaline mediums. Ferrous
sulphate solution was used as a reducing agent to reduce hexavalent chromium (Cr6+)
to trivalent chromium (Cr3+). The reaction in alkaline medium at pH 9.0 was achieved
by adding sodium hydroxide solution (NaOH) since chromium wastewater was acidic.
During the reaction, the addition of ferrous sulphate solution into reaction medium
was monitored through oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) parameter. The results
showed that the ORP profiles for the reduction process were different in both acidic
and alkaline mediums. When the reduction process was completed in the acidic
medium, the absolute ORP value was recorded as 380 mV. The absolute ORP value
when the reduction process completed in the alkaline medium was in the range of 0 to
–300 mV. The total precipitation in the alkaline medium was 1.6 times higher than
acidic medium. For the reduction process in both acidic and alkaline mediums, the
rate of reduction process was faster for the higher concentration of Cr6+ion. However,
the rate of reduction process in the acidic medium was faster than the alkaline medium
because the reduction of Cr6+ concentration was greater in the acidic medium |
