Chromium (Cr) is a metallic element with odorless and tasteless properties which exists in various oxidation states predominantly in trivalent (+3) and hexavalent (+6) forms. Naturally, Cr is found in rocks, minerals, plants, soils, volcanic dust, and minerals. However, drinking water contamination through Cr mainly takes place through anthropogenic activities because of its broad application in industries and mining. The metal possesses high corrosion resistance properties and is widely used in electroplating, chromite mining, alloy forming, textiles, glass, photographic industries, leather tanning, etc.
