Removal of Chromium from Abrasive Blast Media by Leaching and Electrochemical Precipitation
Water is effective in leaching out Cr6+ from a mixture of paint powders and abrasive blast media. However, acids such as HNO3, HCl, and H2SO4 significantly enhance the leaching procedure. Cr ions in the leaching solutions are successfully removed by electrochemical precipitation. The consumable Fe electrodes generate ferrous ions to cause the reduction of Cr6+ to Cr3+. Cr3+ ions along with Fe2+ and Fe3+ are then removed mainly by precipitation as Cr(OH)3, Fe(OH)2, and Fe(OH)3 near the cathode where OH- ions are generated by water electrolysis. The electrochemical process is capable of discharging low levels of Cr6+, less than 1 mg/L, without pH adjustment.
