Removal of hexavalent chromium was studied in an aqueous medium using fungal biomass as bioadsorbents. Aspergillus flavus (S12) was used to investigate the removal of hexavalent chromium in aqueous medium. The present study has been focused on the removal of hexavalent chromium(VI) using a fungal biomass as adsorbents for both active and inactive biomass conditions. For optimization, varying batch study was carried out with varying inoculum (0.5, 1, 1.5, 2 and 2.5%), pH (3, 5, 7, 9 and 11) and temperature (25, 30, 35, 40 and 45°C). In-situ, lab scale column studies were approached for the removal of chromium. Cr(VI) removal rate was attained in aqueous medium using active biomass which was 89.67% and inactive biomass showed 94.55% using. The optimum inoculum for active biomass is 1.5%, inactive biomass is 0.5%, the optimum pH for both active and inactive biomass is 3.0, the optimum temperature is 35°C. The characterization of fungal biomass using SEM-EDX analysis confirmed the removal of Cr((VI) in aqueous medium. FTIR analysis showed that amine, alcohol, alkene and carbon dioxide represent the before and after treatment chromium(VI) in active and inactive fungal biomass (adsorbents).
