Abstract:
Separation of anthraquinone from a mixture of its vapor with a carrier gas by treating the hot gas-vapor mixture with an aqueous suspension of anthraquinone. The anthraquinone produced according to the process of the invention is a valuable intermediate for the production of dyes and pesticides.
Abstract:
Prodn. of Cr2O3 is effected by thermal decompsn. of hydrous NH4 bichromate (I) at 450-750 deg.C in a restricted combustion chamber such that the ratio of the vol. of the combustion chamber in l, to the flow rate of (I) in kg/min. is 1-6:1. Pref. decompsn. is effected in a combustion chamber attached to the feed inlet of a rotary furnace, the material emerging from the combustion chamber being post-reacted in the furnace at sub-decompsn. temp. before being discharged from the other end. The combustion chamber has a dia./length ratio of 1:2 2:1. The ratio of the dia. of the combustion chamber to the dia. of the furnace is 1-3:4.
Abstract:
A process for the preparation of chromium(III) oxide by decomposing hydrated ammonium dichromate at elevated temperatures, an apparatus for carrying out this process and the use of the chromium(III) oxide thus prepared as a starting material for the synthesis of chromium dioxide.
