REMOVAL OF HEAVY METALS FROM ELECTROPLATING INDUSTRIAL WASTE WATER USING ACTIVATED FINGER MILLET GRASS AS AN ADSORBENT

  • Abstract:
  • Electroplating industries generate significant quantities of wastewater containing heavy metals like chromium (Cr), cadmium (Cd), nickel (Ni), and lead (Pb), which pose severe environmental and health risks. Conventional treatment methods, such as chemical precipitation and ion exchange, often fail to provide sustainable and cost-effective solutions. This study investigates the potential of activated finger millet grass (Eleusine coracana) as a low-cost, eco-friendly biosorbent for removing heavy metals from electroplating wastewater
