  • Biological remediation of chromium (VI) in aquifer media columns 
    Mbonambi, Nondumiso C.; Chirwa, Evans M.N. (The Italian Association of Chemical Engineering, 2019-10)
    Hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) is highly soluble in water, but is widely used in industrial sectors for many purposes. The effluent from these industrial activities is often released to the environment posing a threat ...
  • The Cr(VI) bioremediation potential of Chlamydomonas debaryana 
    Roestorff, Maria M.; Mbonambi, Nondumiso C.; Chirwa, Evans M.N. (The Italian Association of Chemical Engineering, 2019)
    Chromium (Cr) is an essential industrial component and has many applications in industrial manufacturing. Anthropogenic activities can lead to the release of hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] as well as trivalent chromium ...
  • Microbial chromium (VI) immobilization in saturated aquifer columns using culture inoculated soil 
    Mbonambi, Nondumiso C.; Mojela, Sintle M.; Chirwa, Evans M.N. (The Italian Association of Chemical Engineering, 2019)
    Chromium exists in two oxidation states in the environment namely; Cr(VI) which is highly toxic, carcinogenic and mutagenic in nature and Cr(III) which is less toxic, mobile and is required in trace elements with human diets. ...
