摘要

Water pollution is a growing concern, particularly hexavalent chromium, a toxic pollutant that poses serious environmental and health risks due to its persistence and bioaccumulation. In this study, zeolite A–X was synthesized using an ultrasonic-alkali fusion hydrothermal method, with coal fly ash serving as the source of silica and aluminum, to treat chromium-containing wastewater. The zeolite A–X was successfully synthesized at an alkali-to-ash ratio of 1.5, a hydrothermal temperature of 90 °C, and a hydrothermal time of 12 h. Batch adsorption experiments showed that zeolite A–X achieved optimal adsorption of Cr (VI) at 13.73 mg g−1 under a pH of 3.
