Separation chromium

Ahern et al. [50] have discussed the separation of chromium in seawater. The method involved co-precipitation of trivalent and hexavalent chromium, separately, from samples of surface seawater, and determination of the chromi-... 

Copper chromite catalyst, after use in high-pressure hydrogenation of fatty acids to alcohols, is pyrophoric, possibly owing to presence of some metallic copper and/or chromium. Separation of the catalyst from the product alcohols at 130°C in a non-inerted centrifuge led to a rapid exotherm and autoignition at 263°C.

One of the elements in the mixture washes through faster than the other and can be collected separately when it drips off at the bottom. In this cobalt-chromium separation you can see one dark band about a third of the way down the column and the other almost at the bottom. 

An excess of alkaline sodium dithionite solution is added under Ng to the later, pure orange-red filtrates, whereupon the bis (diphenyl)chromium (I) cation is reduced instantly and precipitates as bis(diphenyl)chromium (0). After standing for one half hour the precipitate is filtered off on a large, fine fritted-glass fimnel and then dried for 1-2 days over PgOs. It is then extracted with ether or pentane in the absence of air the bis (diphenyl) chromium separates from the solvent in beautiful small crystals. These are filtered off, dried in vacuum, and stored under Ng. Yield 10 to 12 g. 

Common alloying elements include nickel to improve low temperature mechanical properties chromium, molybdenum, and vanadium to improve elevated-temperature properties and silicon to improve properties at ordinary temperatures. Low alloy steels ate not used where corrosion is a prime factor and are usually considered separately from stainless steels. 

Chromium (ITT) can be analy2ed to a lower limit of 5 x 10 ° M by luminol—hydrogen peroxide without separating from other metals. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) is added to deactivate most interferences. Chromium (ITT) itself is deactivated slowly by complexation with EDTA measurement of the sample after Cr(III) deactivation is complete provides a blank which can be subtracted to eliminate interference from such ions as iron(II), inon(III), and cobalt(II), which are not sufficiently deactivated by EDTA (275). 

Processes for HDPE with Broad MWD. Synthesis of HDPE with a relatively high molecular weight and a very broad MWD (broader than that of HDPE prepared with chromium oxide catalysts) can be achieved by two separate approaches. The first is to use mixed catalysts containing two types of active centers with widely different properties (50—55) the second is to employ two or more polymerization reactors in a series. In the second approach, polymerization conditions in each reactor are set drastically differendy in order to produce, within each polymer particle, an essential mixture of macromolecules with vasdy different molecular weights. Special plants, both slurry and gas-phase, can produce such resins (74,91—94). 

Tannins occur in many plants and are separated by extraction. At present, only quebracho extract is used as a mud thinner in significant quantity in the United States. Quebracho is an acidic material and performs best at high pH. It is an excellent thinner for lime-treated and cement-contaminated muds. However, it is not effective at high salt concentrations. Sulfomethylated tannin products are functional over a wide range of pH and salinity and have either been treated with chromium for good thermal stabiUty (58) or are chrome free. Concentrations of tannin additives are ca 1.5—18 kg/m (0.5—6 lb/bbl). 

The head of the femoral component then articulates with an ion-bombarded, HDPE, high walled, acetabular liner which fits iato a screwed ia, machined, titanium, chromium—cobalt—molybdenum or vanadium—aluminum metallic alloy hydroxyapatite-coated acetabular shell/cup. Each of the separate parts of the modular system for total hip arthroplasty is manufactured ia several different sizes. 

The starting materials of the aldehyde method may be sulfonated. For example. Cl Acid Blue 9 [2650-18-2] Cl Food Blue 2 (Cl 42090), is manufactured by condensing a-(A/-ethylanilino)-y -toluenesulfonic acid with o-sulfobenzaldehyde. The leuco base is oxidized with sodium dichromate to the dye, which is usually isolated as the ammonium salt. In this case, the removal of the excess amine is not necessary. However, this color caimot be used in the food sector because separation of the chromium compounds from the dye is difficult. An alternative method which gives food-grade Cl Acid Blue 9 (14) and dispenses with the use of sodium dichromate employs oxidative electrolysis of the leuco base (49). 

Redox flow batteries, under development since the early 1970s, are stUl of interest primarily for utility load leveling applications (77). Such a battery is shown schematically in Figure 5. Unlike other batteries, the active materials are not contained within the battery itself but are stored in separate tanks. The reactants each flow into a half-ceU separated one from the other by a selective membrane. An oxidation and reduction electrochemical reaction occurs in each half-ceU to generate current. Examples of this technology include the iron—chromium, Fe—Cr, battery (79) and the vanadium redox cell (80). 

Ohio, high carbon ferrochromium is leached with a hot solution of reduced anolyte plus chrome alum mother Hquor and makeup sulfuric acid. The slurry is then cooled to 80°C by the addition of cold mother Hquor from the ferrous ammonium sulfate circuit, and the undissolved soHds, mostiy siHca, are separated by filtration. The chromium in the filtrate is then converted to the nonalum form by conditioning treatment for several hours at elevated temperature. 

Once the green, nonalum modifications of the chromium ion have formed, reversion to the hexaaquo form on cooling is sufficiendy slow that on chilling to 5°C a cmde ferrous ammonium sulfate can be crystallised, removing neady all the iron from the system. This cmde iron salt is treated with makeup ammonium sulfate, heated again to retain the chromium impurities in the green noncrystallisahle form, and then cooled to separate the bulk of the iron as a technical ferrous ammonium sulfate, which is sold for fertiliser and other purposes. The mother Hquor from this crystallisation is returned to the filtration step. 

Modem manufacturing processes quench the roast by continuous discharge into the leach water held in tanks equipped with agitators. At this point the pH of the leach solution is adjusted to between 8 and 9 to precipitate aluminum and siHcon. The modem leaching operations are very rapid because no or htde lime is used. After separation of the ore residue and precipitated impurities using rotary vacuum filters, the cmde Hquid sodium chromate may need to be treated to remove vanadium, if present, in a separate operation. The ore residue and precipitants are either recycled or treated to reduce hexavalent chromium to Cr(III) before disposal.
