Abstract	This research explores an eco-friendly solution to combat the contamination of water bodies with toxic hexavalent chromium, Cr (VI), often originating from industrial effluents. The study introduces activated carbon derived from pomegranate peels as an effective and low-cost adsorbent for removing Cr (VI) from aqueous solutions and industrial wastewater. The adsorbent demonstrates removal efficiencies of over 70%, particularly at pH 2, offering a sustainable approach to mitigate heavy metal pollution. This eco-friendly method, utilizing readily available pomegranate peels, holds promise for addressing the critical issue of heavy metal pollution in water bodies.
