Abstract In this work, the kinetics of the micellar catalyzed oxidation of the unsaturated aliphatic aldehyde, E-crotonaldehyde in aqueous medium under pseudo 1st-order reaction condition was spectrophotometrically investigated at 25 °C. In the spectrophotometric measurement, the rate of the reaction was recorded by the decreasing intensity of the metallic oxidant, hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)], in acidic aliquots at 450 nm with varying concentration of surfactants and/or heteroaromatic promoters. Spectral evidences have been produced in favour of the mechanistic approach and the product formation.

The present study is focused on the use of activated carbon derived from water hyacinth (WH-AC) as adsorbent for the removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous solution. The optimized WH-AC was found to be mesoporous and considered as granular. The surface area of 11.564 m2/g was found to have a good adsorption capacity. The adsorption data of the optimized WH-AC followed a pseudo-second order kinetics and the Freundlich isotherm model. Based on the correlation coefficient obtained from pseudo-second-order kinetic model, the R2 values were all above 0.99, which is closer to unity of one (1) indicating that it followed a chemisorption process. The adsorption capacity of WH-AC increased from 1.98 to 4.68 mg/g when adsorbate concentration increased from 20 to 50 mg/l. The overall study proved that the adsorption by activated carbon derived from water hyacinth can be an alternative and efficient technique in hexavalent chromium removal.
