Abstract

The phase equilibria for the system KOH–K2CrO4–Al2O3–H2O and its subsystems at 150 °C in a high alkali concentrated region were investigated. In the concentrated alkali region of the system and its subsystem KOH–Al2O3–H2O, the equilibrium solid-phase K2O·Al2O3·2H2O was found. This is different from the system KOH–Al2O3–H2O at low temperature from which the equilibrium solid-phase K2O·Al2O3·3H2O was discovered. The salting-out effect of KOH and potassium aluminate to K2CrO4 is strong. These findings can provide a significant and precious database for the production of K2CrO4 and the removal of alumina from the concentrated alkali solution that is produced in the chromate cleaner production process.
