Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
In this study, anaerobic granular sludge (AGS) was used as a novel adsorbent for hexavalent chromium (Cr (VI)) removal from aqueous solutions. Factor experiments were conducted to find out the effects of different variables on the biosorption process. Among these terms, the impact of three main independent variables (contact time, initial pH and AGS dosage) on the removal efficiency of Cr (VI) was modeled using a well-fitting polynomial equation (R = 0.9044), by conducting 20 batch experiments designed by a central composite. The experimental isotherm data were successfully described by the Freundlich isotherm and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model was more suitable for explaining the kinetics process of adsorption. The AGS can be disposed using 0.1 M NaOH with 96.4% desorption efficiency. The results of the analyses (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy) suggested that Cr (VI) adsorption most likely involved electrostatic adsorption, redox reaction and complexation.
