Heavy metal contamination in water necessitates exploration of various water treatment technologies. Semiconductor based photocatalysis was studied as a possible mechanism for chromium (Cr) removal. In this study, the calcium alginate immobilized TiO2/ZnO beads were used to remove the Cr from wate...
