Abstract

Water plays a remarkable role in the natural structure of a living organism as people's  bodies comprise 60% water by weight. Water contamination due to negative industrialization and anthropogenic activities is a huge hazard to humanity. The water quality is degraded by the discharge of organic and Inorganic compounds, Pathogens, herbicides, pesticides, drugs, heavy metals, and macroscopic pollutants in the water bodies, leading to a decrease in the oxygen in the water.  Heavy metals are well-defined habitat pollutants because of their toxicity and bio accumulative nature. The adsorption method is more appealing to researchers because of its extraordinary potential to remove toxic metals, in which adsorbate are attached to the solid surface of adsorbent through physiochemical interactions. In the current research, the plant leaf extract of Ziziphus mauritiana was subjected to synthesize TiO2. For Chromium  removal from an aqueous solution, TiO2 nanoparticles will be used. UV-Visible, FTIR, powder  and SEM will be employed to characterize nanoparticle synthesis. Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer will be employed for heavy metal removal analysis before and after adsorption. pH, dosage rate, concentration, and contact time were among the various experimental activities used. Finally, to improve the results, experimental statistics were applied to all recorded data.
