Abstract
Zerovalent iron nanoparticles (nZVI) (11.8 - 0.2% w/w) immobilized on microcrystalline cellulose (C-nZVI) were synthesized and studied for Cr(vi) sorption. The material showed good atom economy for Cr(vi) adsorption (562.8 mg g-1 of nZVI). Oxidation of cellulose to cellulose dialdehyde leads to in situ regeneration of nZVI which is responsible for the atom efficient Cr(vi) sorption by C-nZVI.
