Synopsis

This study aims to produce novel filter pellets utilizing polyacrylamide (PAM), activated carbon (GAC), iron oxide (Fe2O3), zinc oxide (ZnO), and kaolin. The goal is to assess the efficacy of these pellets in treating chromium and nickel in water.. The XRF technique were applied for validation method included filters with known quantities of adsorbed Chromium. XRF accurately measured Cr(VI)  concentrations in the fixed filter pellets..
