The use of chromium (Cr) in several anthropogenic activities has been increased in the past decades and consequent contamination of soil and water have become a concern problem. Chromium (Cr) exists in several oxidation states, but the most stable and common forms are Cr (0), Cr (III) and Cr (VI) species. It is very considerable pollutants which are non-biodegradable and bioaccumulation in nature. Hence the persistent nature of Chromium (VI) makes it accumulate in the food chain which with time reaches harmful levels in living beings resulting in serious health hazards such as irritation in lungs and stomach, cancer of the digestive tract, low growth rates in plants and death of animals. Chromium (Cr) toxicity in plants depends on its valence state. Cr (VI) as being highly mobile is toxic, while Cr (III) as less mobile is less toxic. The main intention of this review to provide a whole sale information about chromium pollution level and its management.
