A literature survey showed that the sorption of Cr on the modified magnetite form of this biomass had not been explored before. Structure, morphology, functional groups, and thermal stability of the prepared modified biosorbent were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction pattern, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. The results of the characterization study confirmed the suitability of Cr adsorption on the proposed adsorbent. The optimization studies were performed to measure the suitable conditions for the adsorption process. The most suitable pH for maximum chromium adsorption by MES was 2. The contact time for maximum adsorption was noted to be 30 min, and the most suitable temperature was found to be 20°C. It was observed that MES showed 95 removal of Cr. The kinetics data for MES followed the pseudo-first-order kinetic model, while the intraparticle diffusion played a significant part in the rate-controlling step. The results described the pseudo-first-order kinetic model for Cr adsorption by MES, with the highest value of correlation coefficient R2 = 0.864. The equilibrium for adsorption data was best described by Langmuir isotherm. For the thermodynamic process, �G°, �H°, and �S° were calculated, the value of �H and �S was �34.622 and �0.11 kJ/mol K, respectively, and found that adsorption of Cr was spontaneous and exothermic. The suitability of MES in industrial effluent was also carried out that offers a green, sustainable, cost-effective, and real-world water treatment solution for water purification having Cr from wastewater/industrial effluent. © 2021 Desalination Publications. date: 2021 publisher: Desalination Publications official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85119982641&doi=10.5004%2fdwt.2021.27753&partnerID=40&md5=41709e00095b116ad3341396e4973cdf id_number: 10.5004/dwt.2021.27753 full_text_status: none publication: Desalination and Water Treatment volume: 238 pagerange: 161-173 refereed: TRUE issn: 19443994 citation: Ajab, H. and Khatoon, M. and Yaqub, A. and Gulfaraz, M. and Nawazish, S. and Khan, F.A. and Dennis, J.O. and Junaid, M.
