Abstract
A major agricultural waste, rice husk and its ash were used for the preconcentration and separation of bismuth and chromium prior to their determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) and their sorption properties with respect to bismuth and chromium from water samples were investigated. For this purpose, rice husk was thermally treated at 300°C for one hour and 600°C for ten hours in a muffle furnace. The effects of various experimental conditions on retention and elution efficiencies of studied elements for untreated rice with husk, untreated and thermally treated rice husk were investigated by applying batch and column methods. The analyte elements were quantitatively collected on rice with husk, the untreated and thermally treated rice husk at 300°C if the pH is above 3. The analyte elements retained on the rice with husk, rice husk or its ash were completely recovered by means of 2.0 M hydrochloric acid. Maximum chromium adsorption capacities of untreated rice with husk (URH)...Keywords
