Patent number: 5374408Abstract: A process for the production of alkaline chromates by means of oxidative disaggregation in a reactor of substances containing trivalent chromium compounds in admixture with alkali. The oxidative disaggregation is carried out in dry phase by moving the mixture within the reactor while heating the mixture by indirect heat exchange in the absence of combustion gases and under mechanical stress, and feeding to the interior of the reactor oxidizing gas. The mixture is heated to a temperature of between 500.degree. and 1500.degree. C. The oxidizing gas is fed with an oxygen concentration in a range between 8 and 100%. Gases leaving the reactor are used for the acidification of an aqueous solution of alkaline chromates which is then dried and supplied to the reactor. The reactor is a rotating tubular reactor and the mixture moves continuously through the rotating reactor.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 1992Date of Patent: December 20, 1994Assignee: Luigi Stoppani S.P.A.Inventors: Giuseppe Bruzzone, Diego Perrone, Alfredo Parodi

Patent number: 5112583Abstract: The chromic anhydride contained in soluble form (chromic acid) in exhausted, polluted chromium plating baths is recovered by alkalizing the exhausted chromium plating liquid to a pH comprised between 3 and 7 at a temperature of 70.degree. C. with a commercial sodium hydroxide solution, keeping the mass in reaction at this temperature for an hour and filtration separating the precipitate obtained. The filtered solution having a specific gravity of 1.25 kg/l, contains CrO.sub.3 (22% in weight) which is then reduced with sulphur dioxide to obtain a solution containing basic chromium sulphate and sodium sulphate, suitable for use as a tanning bath; in this manner pollution is avoided and the waste chromium is exploited. The solution containing CrO.sub.3 can also be introduced into a hexavalent chromium salt production cycle.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 1990Date of Patent: May 12, 1992Assignee: Luigi Stoppani S.p.A.Inventors: Giuseppe Bruzzone, Giovanni Ghelli, Diego Perrone
