Composition and Cr- and Fe-speciation of dust generated during ferrochrome production in a DC arc furnace

A potential hazard associated with ferrochrome production is the unintentional generation of Cr(VI) in the off-gas dusts produced during smelting. Cr(VI) is a well-known environmental toxin and genotoxic carcinogen. Although Cr(VI) has been identified in baghouse dusts associated with submerged-arc...
