Adsorption efficiency of hydroxyapatite synthesised from black tilapia fish scales for chromium (VI) removal
Water pollution is a major problem that impacts financial growth and socio-ecological sustainability of a country as well as health of the population.

| description | Water pollution is a major problem that impacts financial growth and socio-ecological sustainability of a
country as well as health of the population. The presence of toxic heavy metals in wastewater such as
chromium (Cr) (VI), copper, arsenic, lead, mercury, cadmium, etc. may lead to serious health issues.
Therefore, this paper aims to synthesise natural hydroxyapatite (HAp) from black tilapia fish scales
and investigate its efficiency as adsorbent for Cr (VI) removal. In this study, the black tilapia fish scales
were soaked and washed thoroughly with distilled water to eliminate impurities such as dust and other
particles, then dried in the oven before being alkaline treated for 1 h with a 50% NaOH at 100 �C. High
purity HAp with an irregular rod-shape was successfully synthesised. The effectiveness of HAp from tila�pia fish to remove Cr (VI) was tested at various initial concentrations (30–70 mg/L) and HAp dosages
ranging from 2 to 6 g. The results discovered that the synthesised adsorbent had a substantial impact
on the removal effectiveness of the Cr (VI) for both manipulated parameters; initial concentration and
Cr (VI) pH. The optimum result for Cr (VI) removal rate was achieved at 61.43% at 60 min by using 6 g
of HAp. Freundlich isotherm model shows greater suitability with higher R2 = 0.995. Meanwhile,
pseudo-second-order model is favourable for the adsorption process occurred in this study owing to
its higher correlation coefficients. According to the findings of this study, black tilapia scale waste can
be transformed into an effective adsorbent for Cr (VI) removal in wastewater treatment. This includes
industries that may be exposed to Cr (VI), such as welding, coatings, plating, and textile production that
use chromium-containing metals. |
