WATER TREATMENT - CHROME

Groundwater - Hexavalent Chrome in water is easily captured by an strong base anion exchange resin in the chloride form. It has a very high capacity for the hex chrome complex and the system can be run with non-detectable chrome in the ouput. Regeneration is simple with a salt brine solution. With specially designed systems, the regenerant is as low as 12 gallons per cu. ft of resin or about 360 gallons for a 30 gpm system. Chrome waste can be treated on site or hauled off to a treating facility. Capacity is diminished in high sulfate/nitrate environments.

Plating and surface finishing applications can use resins to recover both hex and trivalent chrome. See the literature below.
