Abstract	In this paper, the facilitating role of biogenetic jarosite in the reduction of Cr(VI) by sulfide and its mechanism were investigated through batch experiments and analysis of X-ray photoelectron spectrum (XPS). To study the effects of operational parameters on the reduction of Cr(VI) by sulfide, four operational parameters (pH of solution, operation temperature, loading of jarosite and reaction time) were considered as input variables for response surface methodology (RSM). Graphical response surfaces and contour plots were used to evaluate the effect of interaction between operational parameters on the reduction of Cr(VI). The results suggest that a cycle process of converting Fe(III) to Fe(II) occurred on the surface of jarosite and markedly accelerated the reduction of Cr(VI) by sulfide. For example, the efficiency of Cr(VI) reduced by sulfide increased from 20.5% to 100% when jarosite (1g/L) was added to the homogenous reaction system at pH=8 within 40 min. The analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed a high coefficient of determination (p-value<0.0001, R(2)=97.99%, Adj-R(2)=95.98%) between experimental Cr(VI) removal efficiency and predicted one by RSM developed model. The Pareto analysis results demonstrated that the pH of solution was the most significant term of the developed model. Operation temperature, loading of jarosite and reaction time exhibited synergistic effects on the reduction of Cr(VI), and the effect of interaction between independent factors on the response factor can't be ignored.
