  • Abstract
    The present paper deals with the efficiency of a novel macromolecule flocculant crosslinked starch-graft-polyacrylamide-co-sodium xanthate (CSAX) to remove Cr(VI) from water sample of a water plant. The results showed that the CSAX (1.0 mg/L) is capable of removing up to 85.4% of Cr(VI) from water sample having low initial concentration (0.221 mg/L) under the optimum conditions. The water treated satisfied the provisional guideline of 50 μg/L for Cr(VI) in drinking water established by the World Health Organization (WHO).
