Adsorption Behaviour of Cr(VI) from Ternary Mesoporous Mg/Fe/Al Oxide Using Glucose as a Soft Template.

The ternary mesoporous MgFeAl oxide (MgFeAlO) material was designed and prepared using glucose as a soft template by calcination of its MgFeAl hydrotalcite precursor. The MgFeAlO showed significantly better Cr(VI) adsorption performance than binary MgAlO. The effect of Fe on Cr(VI) removal in simulated wastewater was studied by researching the microstructure, adsorption properties and mechanism of the material.
