    Chromium is a poisonous heavy metal element, it always exits in hexavalent chromium(Cr (VI)), and does great harm to people´s health. To effectively remove the Cr(VI) in groundwater, mixtures of waste iron chippings and fly ash and Fe0 and fly ash were adopted as materials in the laboratory. Using the least square method, the optimization parameters of the test were found. Iterant experiments showed that both purificants were effective in the disposal of the Cr(VI) polluted groundwater. After treatment, the polluted water can meet the 3rd grade national groundwater standard. The results also indicated that the mixture of waste iron chippings and fly ash have better disposal effects than that of Fe0 and fly ash under the same condition. The reasons were also analyzed. Their distinctions are mainly caused by difference in composition between iron chippings and Fe0. According to our analysis, the purification mechanism of both mixtures include the micro galvanic cell reaction among purificants particles, oxidation-reduction and co-sedimentation effects.
