The invention relates to a reducing agent for the soluble chromate content of cement and to methods for the production thereof, which comprise concentrating an used sulfuric acid, containing iron (II) sulfate, and separating the sulfuric acid from the obtained precipitate which contains iron (II) sulfate.

Reducing agent for the soluble chromate content of cement and methods for production thereof

The invention concerns a method for processing heavy metal-laden spent sulfuric acid. For this, iron-laden spent sulfuric acid or iron-laden sulfuric materials obtained therefrom are reacted with a material that contains iron chloride and optionally other metal chlorides, producing iron (II) sulfate. The spent sulfuric acid preferably derives from titanium dioxide production.

Method for processing iron-laden spent sulfuric acid

A process for preparing finely-divided oxides of metals of metalloids of the elements of main groups III and IV and sub-groups III, IV, V and VI of the Periodic System of Elements, comprising reacting compounds of these elements with a polymerizable hydrocarbon compound or mixture to form a polymer product, which is then thermally treated to yield the oxide product.
