Hexavalent Chromium Resistance Test of Saccharomyces Cerevisiae and Modeling of its Bioaccumulation Process
Abstract: Now a day, the release of high chromium containing tannery waste water from tanning industries to the environment is the life threatening action of human activities and bioaccumulation becomes a better alternative in treating heavy metals(such as Cr(VI) )due to its cost effective, relatively high heavy metal removal capacity and recovery property. Cell suspensions of S.cerevisiae at its exponential growth phase were added to 250 ml plastic flasks of containing …

Chemical and Electrocoagulation for Chromium (VI) Removal from Galvanic Effluents
Abstract: Industrial effluents usually contain 10 to 500 mg/l Cr(VI); that according to internationalenvironmental rules must be set at permissible levels before being discharged into the environment.The upper permitted levels of chromium are 0.5 mg/l for effluent discharge and 0.01 mg/l for drinkingwater respectively. Hexavalent chromium is a very toxic heavy metal moiety occurring in variousindustrial wastewaters, such as electroplating, anodizing, tanning and dyeing effluents. Industrialeffluents may contain hundreds of mg/l …
