Water pollution is topic of immense and common concern throughout the world. This book presents the results and data from research and adsorption experiments carried out on the removal of nickel and chromium (as well as other metals) from aqueous solutions using modified silica sand. .

Yogesh Sharma is a professor in the Department of Applied Chemistry, Institute of Technology, Banaras Hindu University. Prior to this he was at the National Institute of Foundry and Forge Technology, Ranchi, where he was involved with consultancy and testing of metals and alloys, drinking water, and industrial effluents. Dr. Sharma has published widely on the removal of metallic species from aqueous solutions.
