Abstract

The use of milled banana peels was evaluated such as biosorbent for the removalof Cr(III) residues in aqueous efflents. The aqueous efflent used was generated inexperimental classes of quantitative analytical chemistry at the Federal Institute of RioGrande do Sul (IFRS). Alternative techniques were employed in the present work, theassays combined two methodologies for the treatment of this residue. The fist, exploresthe capability of banana peels as biosorbent in the removal of Cr(III), while the secondemploys the complexation of Cr(III) using EDTA, under microwave irradiation, forquantifiation purposes. A maximum removal of 60% of the content of Cr(III) wasreached in 40 minutes of treatment, in batch scale.
