Percentage adsorption was calculated for RHA-Chromium solution system as a function of i) contact time, ii) pH, iii) adsorbate concentration and iv) temperature. Adsorption is interpreted in terms of Freundlich and Langmuir equations. The value of ΔH0 was found to be-16.4708 KJ/mole. The desorption studies especially with 0.1M CaCl2 and 10 % HCl at given Chromium loadings on RHA give significant percent desorption of Cr (VI).
