Abstract: A process for stripping a deposit comprising nickel or a nickel-iron alloy from a substrate metal which comprises immersing the substrate metal with deposit thereon into a stripping bath comprising an aqueous stripping solution comprising chromic acid, utilizing said substrate metal as either or both the anode and cathode of an electrolytic stripping cell and applying an alternating current across the electrodes for a time sufficient to strip the deposit from the substrate metal is disclosed.
Abstract: A method of converting at least partially molten dibutyltin difluoride contained in a hot, waste gas stream into substantially dry, solid particles suitable for recovery by filtration through a porous bag filter. The method includes the steps of introducing a predetermined amount of liquid water into the stream, and vaporizing the liquid water to cool the gas and the molten dibutyltin difluoride to form substantially dry particles. The amount of liquid water is sufficient to effect the desired cooling without saturating the gas stream.
