Developed were the determination methods of Cr(VI) and Cr(III) by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, where HCrO(4)(-) (m/z 117) and [Cr(III)(cydta)](-) (m/z 394) were measured, respectively. Moreover, total Cr was also determined by measuring [Cr(III)(cydta)](-) after reduction of Cr(VI) with ascorbic acid. Here, cydta denotes trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid. The detection limits were ca. 13 nmol/dm(3) for Cr(VI) and 56 nmol/dm(3) for Cr(III) and total Cr. The proposed methods were applied to analyze chromate and trivalent chromium conversion coatings and gave consistent results with those obtained by a diphenylcarbazide spectrophotometric method for Cr(VI) and ICP-AES for total Cr.

To maximize the potential of biomass from invasive plants, waste leaves from Rhus typhina (RT) and Amorpha fruticosa (AF) were used to prepare activated carbons (ACs) for the efficient removal of chromium from wastewater. Six ACs were prepared by CO activation at 850 °C with varying flow rates (500, 1000, and 1500 mL/min) and characterized by yield, pH, N adsorption isotherm, FTIR, SEM, TG, and XPS. The adsorption isotherm and kinetics for chromium removal were analyzed.

EBC samples were collected from workers in France, Finland, Italy, The Netherlands and the United Kingdom from three different target activities: chrome platers, stainless steel welders and surface treatment workers. Pre and post working week EBC samples were collected from 177 exposed workers and 98 unexposed workers (control group).

This work deals with the use of layered double hydroxides for a double environmental remediation. The residue obtained in the use of these materials as a chromate sorbent in water, was subsequently studied as a photocatalyst for the removal of NO gases. With this aim, MgAl-CO layered double hydroxides were synthesized by the coprecipitation method with a divalent/trivalent metal ratio of 3.
