Chromium (VI) is one of the most common environmental contaminant due to its tremendous
industrial applications. It is non-biodegradable as it is a heavy metal, and hence, of major …

Chromium pollution is increasing incessantly due to continuing industrialization. Of various
oxidation states, Cr 6+ is very toxic due to its carcinogenic and mutagenic nature. It also has …

The effluents generated pose a threat to all life forms in nature. Chromium is one of the most
toxic effluent due to its carcinogenic and cytotoxic nature. In recent decades the remediation …

A large gap exists between laboratory findings and successful implementation of
bioremediation technologies for the treatment of chromium (Cr)-contaminated sites. This …

The Cd (II) complex of the type CdI 2 (acetptsczH) 2 (where, acetptsczH= acetophenone
thiosemicarbazone) has been utilized for photoreduction of Cr (VI) to Cr (III) and …

This study was implemented to compare between the effect of molasses on chemical
reduction and bioreduction of Cr (VI) in groundwater and further investigate its potential in …

In the present study, indigenous microorganisms from industrial sludge were used to reduce
the activity of Cr (VI). Molasses, a by-product of sugar processing, was selected as the …

The increase of anthropogenic activities has led to the pollution of the environment by heavy
metals, including chromium (Cr). There are two common oxidative states of Cr that can be …

The current study aimed to isolate and characterize a chromate-resistant bacterium from
tannery effluent, able to reduce Cr (VI) aerobically at high pH and salinity. Environmental …

A chromium and tannic acid resistance fungal strain was isolated from tannery effluent, and
identified as Aspergillus niveus MCC 1318 based on its rDNA gene sequence. The MIC …
