hen the first trivalent chromium electroplating process was commercially introduced in the mid-l970s, information on the corrosion properties of the deposits and other physical properties was unknown. To obtain a comprehensive understanding about the corrosion properties of trivalent chromium electrodeposits over a variety of nickel deposits, chromium deposits from trivalent chromium electrolyt...

A mixed plating rinse wastewater containing zinc, hexavalent chromium, trivalent chromium, and cyanide with total dissolved solids of 424 mg/1 was treated by a model consisting of a sand filter and ion exchange columns. A strongly acidic cation resin in hydrogen form and a strongly basic anion resin in hydroxide form were used in the columns as cationic and anionic exchangers, respectively. The...

The first section of this chapter describes general pollution prevention techniques for plating solutions and covers housekeeping, monitoring, additives, equipment modification, and on-site recycling and recovery. The next section covers general issues in pollution prevention for cyanide-based plating. The next seven sections cover pollution prevention options for plating specific metals such a...

The selective recovery of heavy metals of Cu, Zn, Ni and Cr from a mixed plating sludge by sulfidation and oxidation treatment was targeted in this study. At first, the mixed plating sludge was simultaneously subjected to an extraction and Cu sulfidation process at pH=1.5 to dissolve heavy metals and to precipitate Cu as CuS. In the next step, the sulfidation treatment of Zn was carried out at ...

The chrome plating industry is one of the highly polluting industries whose effluent mainly consists of chromium(VI). This compound is highly toxic to aquatic life and human health. The rinse water constituents reflect the chrome plating bath characteristics; generally dead tank wash water contains about 1% of the plating bath concentration. Other metals and metal compounds usually considered a...

aims: chromium is one of the most important metallic pollutants in plating industry wastewater. this toxic metal is a serious threat to human health and to the environment due to its cumulative effects and non-degradability. this research intended to study the effects of ph, contact time, and voltage on the degree of chromium removal from wastewater of plating industry by using the electrocoagu...
