• Gujrat , AP & Rajasthan
• Sources:Black rock salt, dental products
• Toxic in form of halogenated solvents like CCl4.
• TCE found in 790 /1300 NPL sites.
• DDT is a major contamination.
• West Bengal – 9 out of 16 districts
• In UP 4% samples > 0.05 ppm
• Found near thermal power plants.
• Lethal above 1ppm
•Combines with blood cells.•Carcinogenic and readily soluble in water.•Leather tanning, coolants are sources of Cr(VI).

Conventional Methods
FeCl3 FeSO4
• Sodium Borohydride
• Hydrazine
Polyphenols are good reducing agents

Testing Results
• Cr(VI) is reduced by ZVI, followed by formation on Cr-Fe hydroxide alloy, which is precipitated out.
Chromium5ppm of Cr(+6) solution

Conclusion:• nZVI is better reducing agent to remediate hazardous contaminants from water.• Filters using nZVI as a adsorbent are more efficient and cheap in compare to
others.• We came to the conclusion that on reducing size, surface area increases which
helps in fast filtration

Present in two oxidation states –
As(III) & As(V)• As(III)• Non-ionic (H3AsO3) at
neutral pH• High solubility
• As(V)• Ionic (H2AsO4
-/HAsO42-) at
neutral pH• Some phases are less
