Abstract

A method and a device for preparing a trivalent chromium salt by electrochemical oxidation of ferrochrome in an acidic system are provided. The method includes: putting ferrochrome as an anode and placing the anode into an acidic electrolyte together with a cathode, and then turning on a power supply for electrolysis reaction, until an electrolysis completion solution containing the trivalent chromium salt and a trivalent iron salt is directly prepared. Compared with the prior art, the one-step electrochemical synthesis of the trivalent chromium salt solution can be achieved without a hexavalent chromium salt stage, avoiding the generation of chromium-containing waste residue, shortening the process flow and significantly improving the production efficiency of the trivalent chromium salt; furthermore, the reaction can be carried out at room temperature and normal pressure without the use of fine chromium iron powders and a high-concentration acidic electrolyte.
