Amino-immobilized (poly(4,9-dioxadodecane-1,12-guanidine, polydiallyldimethylammonium, hexadimethrin bromide, polyhexamethylene guanidine) silicas were proposed for chromium speciation for the first time. Adsorbents surface was characterized by TGA-DSC, FT-IR, CHN, XRD and SEM analysis. Polyamines were strongly fixed on the silica surface and were not washed off with solutions of 3М HNO and 20 g L NaCl. Аmino-immobilized silica quantitatively removed (R ≥ 99%) Cr(VI) from solutions at pH 4-7. Cr(III) was not recovered in this pH range, which makes it possible to separate Cr(VI) from Cr(III). The separation factor (К) was ≥ 1∙10. Silica-based adsorbents layer-by-layer immobilized with polyamines and 2-(1,8-dihydroxy-3,6-disulfo-2-naphthylazo)benzenearsonic acid were proposed for quantitative removal of Cr(III) from aqueous solutions with pH 4-6 at 90 °C. A system of sequentially connected columns filled with selective adsorbents was used to separate the chromium species in stream at рН= 5 and a flow rate of 1 mL min. Chromium was determined after its elution with 5 mL of 2 M HNO at a flow rate of 1 mL min using ICP-OES or ICP-MS. The pre-concentration factors for Cr(VI) and Cr(III) was 60. A two-column system was used for chromium speciation in technological solutions. The efficiency of chromium speciation was confirmed by state standard procedure.

Whole-cell bioreactors equipped with external physico-chemical sensors have gained attention for real-time toxicity monitoring. However, deploying these systems in practice is challenging due to potential interference from unknown wastewater constituents with liquid-contacted sensors. In this study, a novel approach using a bioreactor integrated with a non-dispersive infrared CO₂ sensor for both toxicity detection and real-time monitoring of microbial growth phases was successfully demonstrated.

A simple and rapid analytical method was developed for the simultaneous determination of two chromium species, Cr(III) and Cr(VI), in the environmental waters by high-performance liquid chromatography-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (HPLC-ICP-MS). This study incorporated a chelating pretreatment with 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid (PDCA) to convert Cr(III) species into a stable Cr(III)-PDCA anion complex, which was then separated from Cr(VI) oxyanion using an anion exchange column. Building on the fundamental analytical approach proposed by Shigeta .

The study focuses on validating reference methods such as ICP-OES and ICP-MS for detecting ultra-trace levels of chromium in groundwater, where concentrations are typically very low. Additionally, it verifies a hyphenated technique, IC-ICP-MS, for determining naturally occurring Cr(VI) in tested waters. The validation process involved various chromium analysis variants, including isotopes Cr and Cr in ICP-MS and IC-ICP-MS techniques, along with specific emission lines in the ICP-OES technique.

Introduction: Traces of hexavalent chromium, Cr(VI), are a major concern for skin contact with Cr-tanned leather. Current extraction methods (ISO 17075-1:2017) for Cr(VI) testing do not necessarily reflect the true potential of surface-formed Cr(VI), as extracted concentrations are dependent on previous storage and atmospheric conditions.
Objectives: To test whether a spiking method protocol can distinguish leathers with high and low risks of releasing Cr(VI).
