Reaktionsschritte

In a known method for producing a chromium salt, such as chromium nitrate, chromium phosphate, or chromium chloride, ore is subjected to alkali oxidizing roasting to prepare a sodium dichromate solution, sulfuric acid is added to the sodium dichromate solution, which is then subsequently reduced with an organic substance to produce a chromium sulfate solution, caustic soda or soda ash is added thereto to form a precipitate of chromium hydroxide or chromium carbonate, which is subsequently subjected to filtration and water washing, and then nitric acid, phosphoric acid, or hydrochloric acid is added thereto for dissolution. In another known method, chromium ore is reduced in an electric furnace using a carbon reductant to produce high-carbon ferrochromium, the high-carbon ferrochromium is extracted with sulfuric acid, the resulting solution is electrolyzed to obtain metallic chromium, and nitric acid or hydrochloric acid is added to the metallic chromium to produce chromium nitrate or chromium chloride.
