Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for the removal and disposal of chromium form an aqueous medium. The systems and methods include the removal of chromium from a source by contact with either natural or synthetic zeolite that has been modified with a ferrous ion or other like substance. The spent zeolite is disposed of and replaced with freshly modified zeolite. In some cases the systems and methods are performed under de-oxidizing conditions.
