    (Rev. Bol. Quim, 2013) Henry-Chase, Adonica; Bhushan Tewari, Brij
    The ferrate (VI) a green chemical due its novel properties such a oxidizing power, selective reactivity, stability as salt and non-toxic by-products of ferric ion, much progress has been made on its application to water and wastewater treatment as efficient oxidant, coagulant and disinfectant. Potassium and barium ferrate are synthesized, purified and characterized. These two chemicals were used to treatment of water samples collected from Guyana Water Incorporation Georgetown (GWI Georgetown), Guyana Water Incorporation Linden (GWI Linden), Tap water South Ruimveldt (Tap Water SR) and University of Guyana Pond (UG Pond). Potassium ferrate is found to be more effective in water treatment in comparison to barium ferrate
