Hexavalent Chromium [PDF]

open access: yesWorkplace Health & Safety, 2018
Hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] is a chemical used in many industries and has the potential to cause negative health effects. Occupational health nurses can intervene to protect workers from the health hazards associated with Cr(VI).

Adsorption of hexavalent chromium on dunite

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 2011
The paper presents and discusses the effect of various physicochemical parameters (e.g. pH, ionic strength, Cr(VI) initial concentration, amount of the adsorbent, temperature and contact time between metal ion and adsorbent) on the adsorption efficiency of Cr(VI) on dunite in aqueous solutions under atmospheric conditions.

Bacterial reduction of hexavalent chromium

open access: yesJournal of Industrial Microbiology, 1995
Cr(VI)-reducing bacteria are widespread and Cr(VI) reduction occurs under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Under aerobic conditions, both NADH and endogenous cell reserves may serve as the electron donor for Cr(VI) reduction. Under anaerobic conditions, electron transport systems containing cytochromes appear to be involved in Cr(VI) reduction ...

Exploring the Chemical Complexity and Toxicological Behaviour of Semi‐permanent Make‐Up Pigments: A Systematic Review

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Semi‐permanent make‐up (SPMU), or micropigmentation, involves implanting pigments into the dermal layer of the skin for cosmetic enhancement. Unlike topical cosmetics, which are rapidly cleared from the body, SPMU pigments persist in living tissues, raising unique toxicological considerations.

Hexavalent chromium removal by ferrochromium slag [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Hazardous Materials, 2005
The aim of this study is to demonstrate the potential of Cr(VI) generation during jigging operation applied for ferrochrome recovery from slag. The Cr(VI) concentrations of water contacted with ferrochromium slag (W/FS=10) in a closed cycle after 50 batches were found as 0.61 mg/l.

Chromium Salt: A Review of Salt Formation, Hygroscopic Properties, and Impact on 316 L Corrosion in Hydrochloric Acid

open access: yesMaterials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
This article examines the impact of externally introduced chromium compounds on the localized corrosion of 316 L stainless steel in acidic chloride environments such as hydrochloric acid. While the corrosion resistance of 316 L relies on the formation of a chromium‐rich passive oxide layer, industrial conditions may expose the steel to various chromium

Biosurfactant production by Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from mining waste: From genomic analysis to development of a polymeric composite for removal of hexavalent chromium

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
Biosurfactant was produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa using andiroba waste from Amazonia. A biosurfactant–alginate composite (Alg/BioS) was successfully synthesized via ionotropic gelation, and achieved up to 70% Cr6+ removal from water. Abstract Environmental contamination by heavy metals represents a significant challenge due to their persistence in ...

Chromium and Cobalt in Used Leather Items: A Danish Market Survey

open access: yesContact Dermatitis, EarlyView.
Used leather items from the Danish second‐hand market frequently release chromium(VI) and, in some cases, cobalt. Some items exceed current EU limits, highlighting a persistent but underrecognised source of exposure in the circular economy that may contribute to ongoing contact allergy despite existing regulations.
