Abstract

≈ 0.99), indicating monolayer formation on the predominant goethite faces (001 and 010), while Cr adsorption followed both Langmuir and Freundlich models, suggesting mono- and/or multilayer formation. Goethite nanomaterials demonstrated high remediation efficiency for complete heavy metal removal from produced water samples, confirming their promise as effective adsorbents.
