Abstract
> 0.71) with phenol C. Spectral analysis showed that there was no obvious complexation between Cr(VI) and the six organic matter fractions at pH 6, and thus the reduction of Cr(VI) was negligible, but solution pH could affect the accessibility of organic molecules to Cr(VI) and thus influence Cr(VI) reduction.
